Well, it looks like there is a pretty decent tailwind...not too wild, just enough to gently carry us through the showers. In my experience of rain on a bike (and most of my long tours over the past few years have been in Scotland, Ireland, Yorkshire Dales, so I think you might guess I have a bit of experience of riding in the rain) when you get a tailwind and rain, you don't notice it half so much. It's not in your face all the time, it's at your back. Added to that, look at the temperatures, folks. Well into the teens. It will feel like being gently bathed in soft, summer dew.
