Hi there and welcome.
I'm a newbie here too and i don't even have a Duc yet (beancounter or whatever his name is, love that

) .
Ok i can understand you're ****ed with the rain, BUT you can still ride in the rain if you want. It's not like the bike will shrink or someting
BTW what bike(s) did you previously own?
