not all that in London, the odd gust but that was about it, even the rain petered out

Yeah - I took the bus, thinking it was going to be armageddon out there. In the end, nuffink. I could have cycled in after all.

It sounded like Armageddon outside in the very early hours.

It sounded like WW3.

Just fine drizzel up in Manchester for the ride home - slight breeze....

 

[Tynan]

very bad rain and wind most of the afternoon but it seems to have all cleared up now ...

well,
this morning was pretty bad... it was like a scene from shaun of the dead... wheelie bins all over the place, rubbish strewn all over the road, dodgind flying milk bottles.. luckilly no zombies though.

I took an hour off work so I could ride hom ein daylight (though it would be better to be windy in daylight than in the dark). turned out that I left just at the right time. wind dies right down and the rain slowed to a mere drizzle. a bit wet and windswept, but not as scary as I thought it would be.

The ride in was a dry top speed of 8mph, the ride home totally soaked 35mph.

Lucky bugger, I left at 4 to get a right drenching. Headwind all the way home and those gusts almost bought me a standstill out in the wilds. Ride in 51 mins , ride home 78 mins !!
