Looks like I am going to struggle this week, very heavy rain here currently and no sign of it quitting.

Manage what you can, and get back in groove next week.

Without counting, and letting Strava tell me, mine is going well - 25 plus hours each month in the last 3 months - riding 3-5 days a week. Mojo is up from autumn, plus commute 2 days a week.

Manage what you can, and get back in groove next week.

Well I did manage 2 rides last week, trying to dodge the rain proved absolutely fruitless and I got utterly drenched on the second one.

W11R1 - Fri 25 50 mins of mostly dry conditions
W11R2 - Sat 26 32 mins, first 15 were absolutely fine then it decided to rain, epic biblical rain. Was an uncomfortable 15 mins or so back home.

Hopefully a lot more positive this week as I have had to travel south for work. Week has started with rain but currently dry and conditions improving so fingers crossed.

W13R3 - Running around locally doing chores - not exciting but better than using the car + I think it may actually have been quicker in places
Discovered a new short cut too - though probably dry weather only if ascending

W12R3 - Sat 2nd April - A couple of hours in the lanes, in between ice melting and fresh snow falling.
