The hailstones were lying thick on the road here in Brizzle this morning. I prefer my commute to be a little less interesting...

Wimps! I rode past your house TMN and it was fine. A bit of a challenge into the wind back to Brighton on the A27 cycle path but character building! Let's hope for better conditions on the 28th.

I agree - there seems to have been frequent showers of hail such that you can't time it to miss them as even if it was sunny when you set off the next batch came along before you could reach your destination.

Bad enough walking against it.
Blimey BOAB!! I'd rather cycle in the wind than do that. Respeck"
You know that a hard core group near you swim in the sea every day of the year?

It was madness on a stick.. I only commute 2 miles, against a 40 headwind today, and a 65 headwind last night! It was entertaining but I made it back, and almost managed to hold a straight line!

Was dry here this morning, with a very stiff wind, on holiday so out on the bike this morning to the Old Pound Cafe Henley In Arden, 47 miles covered, the ride back was a hoot, riding with a tail wind spinning up my fixed and hitting 25mph in places, the ride out was a challenge, flat out and only making 15mph in places.
