Yep, I need to get some practice in before the GM so I don't embarrass myself! Will be up for some Sunday runs soon too

Just need to get a new chain and sprockets on there and she will be perfect, annoying tight link in the chain!

Very wet. My trousers and boots let in water. Not used to that after less that 120 miles of proper rain. Both have done 40000 miles plus so no whinging, just need to put my hand in the pocket.

cant complain at that. my sidi black rains were done at 20k and were not that great to begin with. the new sidi are just superb. my rukka trousers feel like they are wet when it rains but its just the cold under my bawsack.

Trouble with the naked is that in heavy rain you end up sitting in a pool of water. At least, I do.
