Tales from today's commute....

No commute for me today. All last night's rain was supposed to freeze over and I asked to WfH. Woke up (albeit 2.5h after I would have if I'd cycled) and the back garden looked mild peering out from the bedroom blinds and the plastic garden shed was just wet. Got changed and opened the front door the cars were solid ice and the houses not growing cannabis (fortunately all of them) were white. I think I made the right choice after all.

No frost here, slightly cold. Afternoon forecast not pleasant! Just needs a small break when I'm riding please.

Popped the studded tyre wheelset on for this morning's early commute. Whilst it was 3 degrees at home, and no ice, the back lanes went down to zero and were slippery, so it was a good shout after all. Lovely moonlit ride to a 7am breakfast!

Minus temperatures this morning, along with low lying cloud and some pockets of frost in places. The roads were still wet from yesterday's incessant rain so was wary of any ice. Thankfully none seen or encountered.
Sun is shining so will be cycling the 27 Miles home this afternoon.

The Medway at Rochester this morning at 7am

Been caught out a few times now and it's depressing...pleasant enough on the ride in, but peeing down on the return leg and no waterproofs.
I need to pay more attention to the full day's weather forecast!
