Tales from today's commute....

Id kind of committed to riding in today regardless of the weather, final commute of the year, woohoo, but still wasnt too impressed to see the rain forecast when I woke up but actually the rain had already passed, so whilst the roads were very wet, it was actually dry,almost pleasant, even if I had to navigate around the usual impatient driving idiots.

then it chucked it down all day, which was fine as I wasnt getting wet in the office, my bike not so lucky maybe the wind was blowing in a different direction or theres a new leak in the roof. Anyway by home time it was barely light drizzle again, though my forecast app was convincing me it was going to bucket it down any minute and when its dark you cant judge the clouds so well, so I got my boil in the bag coat on just in case..

which clearly did the rain gods trick, as it stopped raining completely, and the only reason I was getting covered in water, was said boil in the bag coat, and the crazy wind, head on it felt like I was riding through treacle.

time for a rest, and maybe clean the work bike, but probably a job for the new year
