Rainy weather in Michigan, discouraging

[Buffalo Bill]

Wow, I wanna do a couple track days this year but so far the weather's real rainy in Michigan.
Only 2 dry days out of 7? That's a miserable 28%.
So I should wait until there's a 5 day forecast before committing and payment.
Bummer.

Hey BB move here. 3 days of rain since sometime in April and no rain in sight for another 2 weeks, maybe longer.

Lovely, I was near you last Sept. at my niece's wedding in Olympia WA.
My sister would like me to move there.
I bought a real nice kayak kit from Pygmy Boats in Fort Townsend, great sea kayaking all up the coast there.
Just to start an intelligent conversation (that will probably draw in our village trolls):
What qualifications would I need to emigrate to BC? From what I recall at least a marketable trade with a potential for income?
Thanks.

Tell me about it. I'm a fair-weather rider and lately I've been lucky if I get to commute by motorbike to work 2-3 days out of the week.

On the plus side, the rivers have been high and fast, which is good if you like kayaking.

2-3 days sounds kinda risky, for getting rain sprayed dirt all over your bike.
Meh, takes a half hour to clean all that stuff off. Probably salty too. I use WD40 to shine up the chrome mufflers.

Well that's why I ride an ugly, unrestored L model. A little bit of dirt only improves the cosmetics.

Chicago's into its cloudiest June in 122 years. Not that I remember them all...
