delmer – When I used to road bike a lot years ago, I rode in just about every kind of weather, except for extreme icy conditions. My friend Kris (who comments here as breakaway9) rides a lot and rode through most of the winter time. This was the first time I’d ridden the scooter in pretty much any wet road conditions. It wasn’t bad, except for the pelting rain on my eyes.

Thank you for the scooter comment. And yes, the name does add a touch of class to it.

I don’t ride in the rain. I’ve been out in 18F temps (on a bicycle … and my goal was to hit the road before the temp climbed to 20F) but I stay in when it’s wet. I’m too afraid of sliding.

Wait, I rode in the rain once. I did 12 miles on the bike path. It’s free of those thick road markings that are so slippery when wet.

I don’t know if I’ve said it before, but that’s a fine looking scooter. The addition of the name dresses it up a bit.

karl – Chafing is bad… very bad. Especially down under when the water can flood the boxers.

I was going to say you changed your Wonder Bra, but apparently that wasn’t it. You’ve got to watch out when your bra gets wet, or it’ll chafe.

ren – Nope. But it’s that final scene.

kevin – Thank you. And yes, it was brave. The pelting on my eyes was the worst part.

alex – Close… very close. That does point to the fact that the final scene was filmed at a different time.

Gonna take a stab in the dark that it’s the drier patio when you’re under the umbrella. But in any case, a great video!

“It’s a bit slick”

Good lord man, you’re braver than I am. As always, an excellent video.

robin – Thank you.

penelope – The name does look good on it. And yes, bonkers describes yesterday’s ride in the rain. All for the fun of making videos on the ScUtah.

rachel – I’m sure I turned a few heads. Actually the day started out nice, but this rain storm came at the right/wrong time while heading home from work. I got pretty wet and had to change once I got home.

kapgar – Nope. All footage except for one scene was shot Monday. Hint… it’s at the end before the credits.

sybil law – Thanks for catching the misspelling. It’s now corrected. Look above to the hint I gave to Kapgar.

dave2 – I bet. You loved your motorcycle.
