Well yesterday the car is out of action so I took the bike and we had 50mm in an hour and guess who got caught in the middle with no wet weather gear on.
Drowned rat was the expression that came to mind.
Found the jacket liner, still looking for the vinyl trousers.
Will also dig out the rain-x for the visor.
Ran through some puddles that would have been around 4 inches deep, and the BT45's ploughed through with no aqua planing, and held on around corners very nicely.
Surprisingly I didn't feel cold at all being wet and riding with a flow through jacket. But thats rain in the tropics for you.

Darwin now has a November total of 216.8mm, up on last year's total of 131 mm.guess I'd better start a cyclone cleanup around the house as well.
