99% Confident Weather Forecast!

[HLaB]

I think I can come up with a 99% guaranteed weather forecast, it'll be wet for the next while; I've took the mud guards off sorry I was tempted to leave them on a bit longer but other folks carbon steeds are starting to come out and I might struggle to keep up and the guards tend to break if they are left on too long,

Tomorrow will be more or less the same as today.

Apparently true 2 out 3 days.

Is it Kinross tomorrow, it supposed to be a crisp clear day, starting around 1-2degC rising to 10degC; that's the 1% the other 99% starts on Monday

For heaven's sake, don't take the snow tyres off yet! I got back home this afternoon to find the central heating had switched itself on.

According to the Met Office, you are correct. At least you are starting on Monday and lasting for the rest of the week - wind and rain .

LOL save a bit for Etape too

Not Kinross, it's the Scottish Bike Show one starting in Balloch. I'm taking legwarmers, windproof, overshoes - the lot.

Good Luck, if the met are right, it'll be an leg/armwarmer day with you having to ditch them later on. I think going by today (which was similar, funny enough Piemaster ) the winter bib 3/4, mtb shoes, autumn/winter jersey was apt.

They don't. What happens is they get them out of the shed/garage/fort knox type lock up facility, it starts to rain, bike melts, stand around looking at gently belching pool of resin and carbon fibres, then get old steel out instead and have a proper ride.

 

[biggs682]

alloy riders normally make it around the block then retreat quickly to get the steel is real bike out

Aren't you up in the north of the UK. Why take them off? it always rains up there.
