Is it really that unreasonable to think that we should be able to go out for a decent ride in shorts and s/sleeve shirt and maybe even a bit of sun cream !! in the middle of July, 4 rides 4 days pissed wet through on 3 of them. Give me a cold DRY winter day over this anytime !!!!

It is not an unreasonable thought, just an unrealistic one!

I'm still wearing arm and leg warmers.

My winter stuff goes into storage in march, 4-months later... Still partly in use...ready for September!!!

I've done only one commute this week. I could have done more but getting the enthusiasm when I get up and its p**sing down, depressing.

 

[Andrew_Culture]

I prefer a nip in the air to wake me up for the commute!

 

[Accy cyclist]

It's horrible most of the time. I'm serious when i say that i'm looking forward to Autumn when hopefully the rain will stop!

 

[Sandra6]

It's actually sunny here.
I was expecting rain so left the good bike at home -no mudguard - but it stayed dry and actually quite warm

 

[biggs682]

must admit have gone back to bike equipped with gaurds

 

[Lyrical]

Shirt/Shorts here, even in the rain.

Saying that, my shoesis didn't dry out from last night and were wet this morning

I was going to go out for a little ride, as dinner wasn't to be ready for an hour and a half. Then it started raining, properly. We've had to turn the TV up because the rain on the conservatory is making so much noise!

I bought a turbo trainer and a treadmill and am not going outdoors until the sun comes out!

You may be seen again next year then ?

I was going to ask who`s still wearing leg warmers, takes me about 8 miles before i get out of the shade and at 6 am its still nippy enough for legwarmers and a windproof.

Dan H ....
I am seriously considering buying a turbo now !, hardly enough time to get out and ride so a turbo session might be good.Spent all my CC sales money on pre mix tarmac to tidy the drive up as we are trying to move house.

Went out today and found the road blocked by a 40 yard stretch of water wall to wall [no pavement just there]. Couldn't tell the depth so I'm afraid I chickened out, but this is SUMMER !
