It was lovely weather when I left work at 5.30pm. 10 minutes later the heavens opened, and got worse, and heavier... for all my hours long commute. I walked through the door at home like a drowned rat. The rain stopped and the sun shone... weather Gods bastards.

Your weather's just like mine this week (except for the rain you got). Perfect temperatures and minimal wind.

It's funny. We tell our kids not to talk to strangers then they keep asking me "why did you start talking to that person?"
Perhaps we are the kind of people that nobody wants to sit next to on the bus Fossy?

Oh well, talked to two randoms again on the way in.
Filtered past a load of traffic and was waiting at the lights next to Vernon Park, when a chap on a moped pulled up and started chatting. He was saying how none of the drivers were looking this morning, then saw me filtering down the 'chevrons' and thought 'he has the right idea'. Then caught a chap on a really nice BMC fast hybrid in bright yellow - I said how nice it was, then he took a tow from me from Stockport to Cheadle - I pointed out all the pot holes as he sat on my wheel, then bid him farewell as I was unfortunately on my short route as I'm in a meeting in a few minutes. Plus side the meeting is in a pub all day !!! No beer, but the coffee should be good.

Or use this http://labs.strava.com/flyby/ - post the ride address into the top box and "watch" the ride - it will tell you who you passed during the ride too.

I must have been behind the rain, the roads were soaking but the sky was clear all the way home.
Anyway, this morning was bliss.

Lovely this morning with the sun out even at 6am, still a bit chilly but should warm up nicely for the ride home

It was lovely and warm just an hour later. When are you going to ditch the longs?Lovely this morning with the sun out even at 6am, still a bit chilly but should warm up nicely for the ride home
Doesn't anyone in London check the weather forecast before cycling to work? I know that some people feel the cold more then others, but jeez people.. you really don't need to dress for Arctic conditions. (Sorry CC'ers, I've just realised I've done this one before, so a TMN to me)
It was absolutely glorious cycling weather this morning. Sunny with that hint of warmth from the sun already at 7.30am & very little wind. Shorts and SS's all the way.

It was cold at 5:30 this morning in Leicester, I set off with a jacket and full fingered gloves on, I did stop and remove them later though, got to get those tan lines worked on
