Back in March I was about to head out one Saturday morning for my classroom part of my MSF Ridercourse. I had only had my bike for maybe 2-3 weeks after not riding for 20 years so I was still a little shaky on it and still breaking it in obviously.
So, It decided to rain that morning so I put on my new one-piece raingear that was a pain to get into over my nylon bike jacket.
On the way there in the rain, it decided to SLEET. I was like wtf is this?????!!!
Thank God my gloves had a rubber squeegie on the thumb or else I would never have made it and probably crashed.
By the time I got there, my helmet and the front of the bike had about a 1/4 inch layer of frozen sleet on them.
Personally I think I should have automatically passed the course just for making it there in one piece.
