Nice!! I have heard mixed reviews on the Frogg Toggs and am glad you included your bit of feedback.

That's a nice ride.
Ain't the weather been warm here?
The front just hit here in Lee County. Raining hard.

If an old man is Laughing at you for no reason, you might want to take a mental inventory because you might have lost something.

sorry, no pics, my phone broke the day before I left. Only pic I have is one my daughter and I took at the top of Tower of the Americas.....and then we went to the riverwalk to eat and I left the picture I just paid $20.00 for at the restaurant. Called them and they had it, so I am hoping my daughter went back to get it.

Frogg Toggs - I have worn them for years. Biggest things you have to watch out for.
1. They will melt quickly if u hit the exhaust
2. Do not tuck in the top. Once I tucked the top in for wind purposes. The water bunched up there and ran down inside the pants. Looked like I had peed my pants.

They are not the best in the world, but they do the job for a good price. I have been in hard down pours before, but nothing like in Port lavaca and was surprised I was still dry --except my feet, which surprised me how wet they got as my boots are "waterproof". I guess the rain was blowing so hard it easily penetrated the lace area.

Rain can be a good reason to stop and enjoy ride to eat stop.
