Was dry up until the last 15 minutes but wasn't heavy rain.

I was hoping to finish in around 5 and a half hours, but the guy I was doing it with hasn't cycled much recently due to a new addition in his family and so at times we were sitting at 10mph on the flats

Was a great cycle though and would really recommend it.

No, not seen them

Tomorrow looks promising for me, 17 deg, Sunny & warm great

Lack of posts in this thread is indicative of the nice weather we've been having

Here's one of my other 2 wheelers. Managed the 40 mile round trip to work a couple of times but a lack of gear means I'm too much of a fair weather rider to have been out recently. Much get some decent waterproofs...once the curvy's done.
