Water will ruin the engine. It doesn't combust like gas so when it is injected into the engine cylinder the piston will attempt to compress it which it won't do. The pressure will either damage the crankshaft, piston, rod, block, or lift the head off the motor. Either way, it's bad. That's one of the reasons it's a terrible idea to drive through flood water. The intake can suck up water and have the same result. Usually, it's called hydro-locking the engine. Just search that term if you want to see the damage.
I wish I could! My trip to work is pretty low speed but there's a long stretch of 2 lane where everyone goes 55 MPH. It's too dangerous to bike in the morning.
