Ride 16/06/2024

Well only 2 of us on the bun run today and given the weather I’m not surprised. I was riding the correct equipment and clothing today, winter bike and full rain gear and most grateful for it as it rained the entire ride 🙄 Given the shite weather today, thankfully it wasn’t Baltic or too windy, Nick and I decided to just stick to the usual Sunday bun run route and hope for the best. It wasn’t pouring down but it was consistent, which meant you were going to get wet not matter what. By the time we got to the cafe stop, I wasn’t fairing too bad but Nick was still on his summer bike and summer clothing, so he was pretty wet. Coffee and cake were had as per usual before we set off on the homeward leg. Thankfully we would have a tailwind blowing us home and this also meant we weren’t riding into the driving rain anymore. The rain did ease up a little bit going home, but didn’t stop, but enough to not make the 25 miles back home a misery. So by the time I got back home, I was wet but not drenched and thus clocked up 50 miles at just shy of 16 mph avg speed, and that was enough for the day.
