Tales from today's commute....

Still not raining. ..

Started off drier than expected (not actually dry just damp), and ended up wet, wet wet. However it was one of those days when I got it right with what I was wearing so having removed the soaking waterproofs I'm dry and neither sweaty or cold. So I would class that as better than expected (when your expectations for the weather are very low I guess it is easy to exceed them occasionally).

Nor here, so...

Has been raining here all day and is windy, knowing my luck the headwind I battled against this morning will 180 by tonight and I will be battling it again

I saw a weaselly stoat right in the middle of Washington (T & W, not D.C.).

Rained all day

Fair do's to all the lunatics on my route and good reactions from the racer girl with the Bern helmet on Maple Road for avoiding the pulling out numpty!

16 miles of tail wind followed by 10 miles of the mother of all headwinds, and to say it was wet would be an understatement. I don't thing my gloves will be dry for next Tuesday, never mind for tomorrow.

That's why I have multiple sets, I've already put the dry pair in!

Rain, wind and getting lost due to stupid diversion signs this morning but wet weather gear did it's job. Got home without getting lost but the rain was coming down like the monsoon season but it was a nice ride as the wind had buggered off and kept an average speed of over 30kmph which was nice as I tend to slack off on the home journey.

I've pulled out my lobsters, hands will be nice and toasty tomorrow and they dry pretty quickly. Thinking of getting a second spare pair

Only a couple of showers on the way home, so not as bad as this morning.

Having to put wet Lycra on before I left, not nice!

First puncture on the way home tonight, thankful for a spare tube and the bits to change it in my bag, also thanks to all the offers of help from other cyclists, aren't cyclists great!

 

[Smurfy]

Downhill and headwind this morning, uphill, headwind and rain on the way home

Apart from having to pedal hard down the 1km hill that is usually a free roll with a touch of the breaks this morning and nearly being knocked off at a roundabout this evening (for the second time this month), nothing much happened today.....
