Anyone out in this weather?

[13 rider]

Ok I lied just been for a 6 mile spin . Fitted my old back wheel with an 11 28 Cassette and wanted a test ride with existing chain from an 11 25 set up . So waited for the rain to stop and and out I went its was windy !!! Didn't mind the headwinds for testing the low gears but the crosswinds !!!! Borderline stupid for going out but heyho
By the way wheels worked fine Im ready for some Cornish hills in July

Yep as per the commuter thread i did indeed and it was horrid, now contemplating the return journey as those reported 60mph winds might put me off!

 

[Will Spin]

Decided not to go out as winds gusting over 50mph, so trying to do damage limitation in my garden. Hoping for better weather tomorrow for my club run.

Another hardy commuter here.
Pretty nasty out this morning. Heavy rain, strong winds and cold... made for an interesting ride to work.
(asks himself why he didn't go the direct route to work this morning)

 

[Ciar]

well it's currently sitting at 40-41 mph here in the wharf, until 7pm and i finish at 5.30 dilemma!

Very wet and very windy here so no ride today. Not looking much better as far as the wind is concerned for the next few days either.

Not too bad here today on the commute, but last night was bonkers. Got soaked within 2 minutes and the other 35 were just battling to get home.

Too windy for me today. I didn't even take the motorbike to work. I bussed it in....

Train tomorrow

I was the only taker for the usual Tuesday club ride - normally 30 or so. I went on alone. Got some amazing PBs with the wind behind me coming back!

Day off drop car off at the garage cycled home 1.8 miles abandoned plans for a leisure ride not going out it this weather . Doing odd jobs banking brownie points
Edit inbetween pursuing Cyclechat

Brownie points only last for 1 day then they are wiped clean and you have to start again.

Usual commute here too. Extremely wet but quite fun in an odd way. Flew home with a helpful tailwind in 34 minutes. I'm pretty sure that's the fastest I've ever done the 9.5 miles, despite the lashing rain.

Im looking forward to the run home,should be wind on my back the whole way unless it changes direction in the next hour or two...if it does,im getting the tube

Not so good.Had to transport a pair of boots in a box and was doing fine but then down one of the backstreets got caught in a crosswind that nearly had me off.
