Tim, time to add towels to the menu?

 

[BalkanExpress]

The forecast seems to change by the hour. I have a waterproof and a hip flask...

Based on the last forcast I saw I'm looking to fit a periscope

 

[BalkanExpress]

I no longer see Davy S, Has Mr Walnuts dropped out?

 

[CharlieB]

Sorry, all. I've got to pull out of this one - a lot of radio station work to do this weekend, and a closer look at the metcheck forecast has swung it for me.

Could be a moneyspinner!

I'm currently leaning towards embracing Rule 9

After all, it can't possibly be as wet as Manchester...

Now you've gone and done it!

Ah well, I bought some lovely new goretex that went unused in Holland last week so I may as well get some use out of it....

In view of the forecasts (all of them seem to think rain, plan to ride up and make this into a 200 is dropped. U-96 The Trek will be the weapon of choice I think!

*peers at met office*

Oh my.

If it's going to be like that, rule 9 goes right out of the window. Rebecca might have a point...

No probs, Decathlon is your friend................they still have wetsuits in stock

 

[martint235]

I think that the Giant is coming out tonight for its first FNRttC since I bought Lelly

 

[User482]

Yep, I've prepped the winter bike for its first ride of the season. It was last used on the Emsworth ride, which was biblically wet at times.

 

[wanda2010]

Waterproofs and a complete change of clothing at the ready. Might squeeze in a towel

Actually, most sane people would drop out of a ride with such a weather forecast, yet we are actually continuing................... for pleasure Doctor!!!!!
