Did a wonky triangle between Taunton, Somerton and Bridgwater with the cycle group today, clocking up 77 miles. We set off in bright sunshine, but I rode the last 7 miles home in pouring rain. It's a good thing it's midsummer and I packed my waterproof jacket as well as the windproof. :rolleyes:
 
Two short rides for me today. In the morning I went to the local Gala

Then after vegging out for a bit I realised I needed cash for tomorrow's cafe stop and went round to the bank.
 
Went out with the club and had a great ride, the forecast (a few days ago) was wet and windy it was anything but; we only caught one shower when one of the group got a p'ture. Got to the steep twist descent and I wussed out again :blush: others were hitting +40mph at that point :blush::blush: I went rapidly backwards, which turned out to be a good tact and I was at the back into the headwind to the cafe stop ;) Fortunately, by the time we got out the wind had shifted slightly and there was an element of a northerly (tail wind) as well as the westardly (headwind) :smile:

A quick 18 miler around the Acton Burnell area. It's very pleasant out this evening, although a bit windier than I would have liked, yet I only encountered 1 other cyclist en route who was just finishing fixing some sort of chain failure.

Where is everyone?
