If I recall, statistically, it rains in Swansea every day... I'll be bringing me coat...
It falls in drops, and sometimes in sheets, but never in statistics. A waterproof is sensible, but we aim to dodge the rain.

Is like Lancashire where if you can see Pendle Hill it's going to rain and if you can't see Pendle it's raining already??

I'm afraid it is. People think Swansea is by the sea but its actually 20 miles away. That's a big puddle to the left of the Mumbles!

leaving for Paddington in an hour or so. Weather not looking to inspiring, its going to have to be a full waterproof jacket. I'll be lucky if I can get as far as Paddington without getting soaked!
As for tonight, the edge of the rain seems to be around the south wales coastline, so it could go either way, bit like most of the rides this year. Keeping fingers crossed.

Cross everything you have. It's dry here at the moment...

I can hardly bring myself to ask if it's raining in Swansea yet...

But you had to ask anyway didn't you? For that you deserve your own little, personalised rain cloud for the duration of the ride!

Well, that will make a change. Normally my own personalised rain cloud on these rides is yourself.

It's going to be Mancunian, isn't it?
I'm going to repeat the strategy that worked so well on the Dun Run. No, not falling asleep and waking up in a pile of nettles, but bringing an utterly gratuitous waterproof pannier of spare dry clothing and absolutely no sunblock or hayfever drugs.

A bit one sided - its like the massed forces of Mordor about to beat up some koalas.

And normal service will be resumed for Newhaven or Brighton!!!Well, that will make a change. Normally my own personalised rain cloud on these rides is yourself.
