I've ridden in rain so hard that it was sheeting off the highway 2 inches deep. Trucks were kicking up sprays like a jetski when they passed me.
I died that night, I'm just to lazy to lay down. So I keep on going...
Rain does not slow me down a whit... ice on the other hand, I avoid.

Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.

Well, seeing as how I rode my Katana 750 through a freak May long weekend snowstorm, and passed at least a dozen vehicles in the ditch along the way, I'd say a little rain isn't going to stop me from riding.
Of course I should mention that this freak snowstorm ride was only the final 15 km of a 350 km trip, and that it was also the same trip where I suffered the mild concussion from spanking a seagull with my head on the highway, so I probably wasn't thinking too clearly.
I can still see the guy standing on the side of the road while his F-150 was being winched out of the ditch, watching me ride by, shaking his head at me.
