Awful weather today...

Roof fixed by local roofer after Abigail's visit. Goodbye Abigail; hello Kate. Chucking it down here again.

Could you not move abroad where they badly need rainfall?

I'm just waiting for the call from Bob Geldof.

Weather forecasters? I wouldn't pay 'em in buttons.
Got up early for a ride today before the forecast weather apocalypse (due late morning they said), got soaked by the rain that started when I was about 2 miles from home and kept me company for the next 6 miles or so.
Cleared up by the time I got home a couple of hours later, obviously, and stayed clear until gone noon...

Do we need to ask who is under this lot?

My half century a month challenge is looking in serious jeopardy now. Not been able to get out at all in November yet, my plan was this weekend, but weather was dire today and looks pretty much the same tomorrow. Busy next weekend and the following Saturday, so basically Sunday 29th is my only chance of getting out this month!

I'll be the wee red dot in amongst the yellow bit then?

Two weeks today is when I last got out.

Really bad day here at the moment - heavy rain and pretty high wind. Just took a short walk down to the river which sits a couple of hundred feet below the house and it is in spate - saw two kayakers playing on it as well - mad people!

The mountain weather for those that are interested - today I was due to be scrambling Pinnacle Ridge on St.Sunday but aborted this a few days ago, a good move!

It's a good day for doing a tax return today. Much more of this constant rain and wind and I can see my already waning enthusiasm for cycling disappearing altogether. It's just been such an utter crap year weatherwise.

I managed to get out for a short ride last Monday but haven't been out since due to the weather mainly but also other commitments. Was hoping for a ride this morning but its blowing a gale and raining with it so reverted to the spin bike - but thats just boring!

Here you go, @Brandane , a sig tune just for you.

Yesterday was the only ride I've had since last weekend, due to the weather.
Given the forecast I binned any thoughts of a ride today and arranged to do other stuff - however it's been nowhere near as bad as forecast and I'm a bit vexed that another chance for a ride has gone begging.
I know the weather is bad elsewhere, but in this day and age the inability to forecast the weather more than a couple of hours in advance is ridiculous when you consider how much money they spend at the Met Office.

Like most other places the weather has been horrible this weekend, didn't stop me going out for a ride today, although It was a bit dodgy In places

The weather has been bad but people are over exaggerating there's been far worse and at least its been mild. Got out for 60 dry miles yesterday and another 45 dry miles today. Would have went for more but I had a bike fit in-between and the fitter advised against going further as he drastically altered the previous retul fit. I've more faith in him though, he's an expro and I've seen others excelling after his fits.
