Ewww, drizzly rain all the way home, put my lights on front and rear as it is really gloomy today, got near home and decided I wasn't going to get much wetter so did a detour round the block for an extra 1.5 miles

I fancied a ride before the light fades

Been raining for the last hour or so in Leicester, so it is on its way to you. I'm going to get drenched in the first couple of hundred yards, so might as well do my normal ride home anyway, but will be putting the lights as I only just about got away without using them last night.

Still dry here but not for long I suspect (16:45 is my estimation), got a rear light but the front is at home. I've got bib shorts in today an oddly I don't ming getting wet in them so if its not too bad I may go for a loop and get back before dusk (19:25 according to the web).

A nice ride in to work this morning, the only highlight was a bus nearly crashed into a back of a car, as the bus driver was not paying attention to the traffic on the road, and did not notice the traffic lights had turned to red, he missed the car by inches.
And home time and the rain has finally caught up with me, must have been 2 months without any rain for the ride home. good job I kept my wet weather gear in my locker at work

Cycled to work, which was great. Got the train home, which was rubbish.
Steady ride in this morning with the missus so I didn't notice the wind, shorts today. Gave blood at lunchtime and was told to take it easy on the way home. The rain started as I left the office. The route is mainly country lanes so i got wet and muddy. Forgot I had overshoes as well. First close pass for a while, which wasn't that close. I heard cars coming up behind and swerved left to avoid a pothole, they must have thought I was pulling over for them so didn't move out much.

A very wet 26 miles home, still beats driving.

Right on cue the rain started but I was in the mood for a ride unlike last night and went for an extended commute. The muppets out unfortunately, I got buzzed on the Barnack Road; pity my right foot is clipped in or the pr!ck might of got a SPD in the face! Got a few miles down the road and the Blues and Two's were going just before a bend; rounded the bend and there was a car in the ditch, unfortunately it wasn't them. Never mind, they couldn't spoil my better mood and I went on for a bit more.

Damp at the end, only started raining 2 miles from home and wasn't heavy. Legs are feeling a bit tired this week. Caught up with @kevin_cambs_uk again before Swavesey, had a nice chat.
