I did the ride out with Doug to Husbands Bosworth on Saturday afternoon and it hammered it down, so wet was I even down to my under drawers and I guess that we were all the same. It was a rain storm of biblical proportions but needless to say it stopped when we arrived. Such a shame for the organisers who put in so much effort for minimal reward.
A pity for us riders too as Doug had chosen a lovely route through the back lanes which was a little bit spoiled by the standing water on the road. One problem was solved as I had been wondering what I would do on Sunday and as it turned out I spent my time cleaning the muck off my bike!!
I've attached a couple of pictures for your information and use as I believe you send them off somewhere to record our activities.
All the best then and keep it shiny side up!!
