Windy today... who's going out riding?

[samsbike]

Commuted in today, a bit wet and a bit windy, dreading going home.

Out 15 miles yesterday on new bike - first half into wind then tail wind home and 40 mph down one of the hills. Made it all worthwhile!

Opted for the Turbo trainer today. Was very wet and windy.

Now a little concerned that Santa might scrub me off his list.

I went out with some folks at least it wasn't windy but you probably made a wise choice, it wasn't very nice out there!

Same as Pedro for me! probably not get on the bike again for a few days now, although a very slight chance of a Boxing day ride

With regards to my thread regarding my bodily functions the only wind round here is lightable

Some guys on here have cleverly mapped out their rides to go with the wind and get the train or bus back home.

And the problem with that is ??? I have no aspirations to be Wiggins; I cycle for enjoyment, not punishment. At least I get out on my bike. Oh, and I avoid rain like the plague, too .

Weather forecast said it would get worse. Though they also said we were going to get a total white out again this year.

They also told us in February or thereabouts that we were going to have a hot, dry summer .

Left Mrs S having a lay in and all four children playing with their toys and rode one of my shorter routes (10 miles). Good to blow the cobwebbs away as I haven't been near the bike for nearly 2 weeks due manflu and Christmas preps. Felt great and did it in record time, weather sunny and not too cold. Plan on doing some longer rides this week if Mrs S does't object (too much).

New Years resolution is to get out on the bike (road or turbo) at least twice a week!

By the time i got chance for a ride , i.e now its sleeting

You would think 2 days of eating and drinking would be perfect preparation for a hilly training ride!!??

No, it's really not.

2 hours, 34 miles and 3000ft climbing later i can report - I have felt better.
