Wet but very warm. Held off on the waterproof for as long as possible, as I had a small climb to do out of Stockport but the rain was starting to soak me through so soon after I changed. Quick ride though and one idiot tried to under take a right turning car by swerving into the bike lane. I was level with his open window so 'Bike, bike' was loudly shouted through the opening. They backed off and later apologised.

Also undecided on the waterproof, but there was actual rain so I sweated in it. I think overall less wet than I'd have been without it.
Up late, out on time, into town early thanks to a generous tailwind component.
Grey and overcast with ominous clouds rolling in from the south west, although thankfully only very light drizzle for a limited time which was quite welcome given how hot and humid it is.
Traffic was moderate with thankfully no proper dickheads today; a couple of bus drivers actually taking the time to clock my speed and wait in their junctions for me to pass rather than just looking through me and pulling out anyway as is often the case.
Now fighting the wind but with time in hand I stopped to trim a few obviously problematic areas of bramble on the tow path - eliciting a few acknowledgements from passing walkers / cyclists; which was appreciated.
Got to work just on time to confirm that as expected today’s sausages were fantastic 😊
