    Going to scotland this weekend with the father and others and its forecast to piss down as you all may know. My sister has gone and lost my dainese sprogs and all I have is my sumer race gloves and no time to go buy some waterproof ones. Any ideas of how to keep the rain out? :)

    Not out mate, but off your hands. Latex gloves if you have them in the garage?

    Dave, Latex will keep the rain off the skin agreed, but for one your hands sweat in the buggers. and without sounding all keeno ;) you should really only expose your skin to latex for 20 minutes with a recomended cooling off period I belive ten minutes before putting on another pair.
    Think I'd rather suffer the wet hands personally :)

    Or those ones you get for diesel at petrol stations over the top of your summer ones.

    Explains why my hands look fcuked! Joking, never hand an issue.

    And you really shouldn't drink over x amount of units a day, you shouldn't smoke, watch porn and eating too many apples is bad for you........

    Buy a set of winter gloves on your travels mate.
    Nothing worse than cold wet hands on the bike. And you don't have to break the bank for a set either.

    I had a feeling when posting this that it would rapidly deteriorate into a joke fest knowing the type of characters on here

    Only supposed to be pissing down on Friday mate. unless you are in Aviemore or Inverness where it is meant to be snowing.
    Wee bit wet out West on Sunday, but elsewhere should be dry and cloudy.
