Ride 15/09/2024

9 of us on the bun run today and weather wise it wasn’t forecast to rain, it was supposed to be dry and eventually sunny, alas it was not ☹️ Not only did it rain it was also windy again, so head wind all the way to the cafe stop. I was leading for the start of the ride and because it was raining, not hard just drizzle, having the wind in your face also meant I was getting hammered with the rain 😫 It did eventually stop but my top was a little damp and my arse was very wet. Thankfully by the time we got to the cafe stop the rain had stopped and I was just about starting to dry off. The usual coffee and cake were had at the cafe before our return journey. I was leading again but this time I didn’t mind as it was starting to warm up and get sunny and I now had a tail wind 🙂 I was pacing myself today so wasn’t going hard, still a bit fatigued from Fridays training session and I wasn’t going to do any extra today, so 50 miles clocked up at an avg speed of 16 mph. Myself and the bike were obviously bogging by the time I got home so both needed a good clean 😁
