Riding in the rain

Riding the the Rain.
Since I've had a couple of days of rain riding, you might be wondering
what that's like on a motorcycle. Clearly, its not as nice as riding
in the sun but I do ok with it. Here is how I'm prepared to ride in
the rain;
1. I've got a fullface helmet that covers my whole head. The only
issue with it is that in the rain, it fogs up so I've got to keep the
visor open. That lets rain in.
2. I wear an aerostich suit that is water resistant. It worked well
the last two days but today, it was just too much. Supposedly we're
getting 40mm of rain today and it appears that might be true.
3. My boots are Sidi Sympatec boots were are absolutely waterproof.
At least my feet were dry today.
4. Today, I put on my skindiving gloves. They are waterproof but not
quite as warm in really cold weather (today).
