As a fellow daily commuter I still tend to do weekend rides if raining

We had a static caravan for quite a few years and enjoyed lying in bed with the rain on the roof.
Similarly we enjoy being in the conservatory when its raining.
I dont cycle in the rain if possible.

Rain keeps my garden green

I know I`ve mentioned this subject and how it ruins my cycling experience, but who else loves the sound of it when you have your feet up by the fire, or when laying in bed? My house has a dormer roof so the rain is really loud in the bedrooms and I do enjoy it

Anybody else?

This morning we were tucked up in bed listening to the sound of rain I enjoy listening to it when I know I don't have to go out in it.

I love being outside and sheltered if it's raining. It's a great feeling.

I actually went out voluntarily in the rain early today. Well that's not quite true... I decided to go out, found a cut in my tyre, took it off and stuck a patch on the inside and when I got out, found the rain had started so went anyway. With a rain cape on you soon reach a steamy equilibrium but the feet and bum get steadily more and more soggy and cold.

Got home, had a shower and drove over to Holcombe Brook to watch the Lancs RC hill climb up the Rake. Met three old friends, enjoyed myself, didn't get wet and the rain re-started as they handed out the last prize. Today's winning time was 2.27 although the Record stands at 2.14.

My house is built over a brook and when the water is really high we hear boulders tumbling down the bed of the culvert, a rather unnerving sound.
