Winter.

Anyone that actually likes cold, dark and rainy days has problems :p

I don't mind it. Better than dying from heat stroke.

Went for a walk in the rain today. I almost wish it was cooler, walking in a rain jacket tends to make me run hot.

I just wish I had another 2 garage bays so I can work on cars when it's raining.

I don't have room for another garage but I'm planning a covered parking area.

Same here, I don't even have air conditioning in my VR and I drove it across Australia in the middle of a 45c heatwave.

I don't notice the heat as much as I notice the cold.
I don’t have air con in my VZ SS either, haha, get sweaty balls on those leather seats.

I don't like dark and dreary days* however cold and sunny can be just as enjoyable a day as when it’s warm and sunny… all depends on what you are doing and your mindset ;)

After all, one can’t appreciate the seasons without the contrasts they bring… and it’s hard to go cross country or downhill skiing when it’s 40C, so there is that :p

* best days to turn all the lights on and spend the day faffing about at home in the garage :cool:

Went to pick up some parts I ordered for the bike. Cost me over $60 and $34 of that was freight. Turns out some of the parts were incorrect I was sent a parts diagram and of course they are not easy to read when they have a huge amount of detail. So the windscreen grommets I needed were wrong and I was sold fairing grommets plus the inserts which I don't need. Small parts were like $2-$3 each but freight was a killer. I don't think the girl was real happy and laid the blame on me, even though I did try and explain what the parts were and where they went. She said she can try to return them but I was like they are $2-$3 each freight was nearly half the cost. I'll add them to my parts inventory. They sold me some aftermarket ones which I need to see if I can make them work. If not two $5 rubber nuts will be $27, because of the freight.
