Daily Log: #4 - Summer Rain

Distance Travelled: 13.65 miles
Time on Bike: 50 minutes
Average Speed: 16.38 mph

Totals: 57.33 miles, 3 hours 26 minutes, 16.7 mph

There's nothing worse in the warm weather than having to suit up for rain. Admittedly on leaving work last night I took a gamble that it wasn't going to but took my yellow top just in case it rained this morning.

No sooner had I hit Bull Lane than it started to spit and then drizzle and it looked like it was settling in so I did the decent thing and pulled the yellow from my top and slipped it on at the bypass junction. Inevitably it then stopped raining....

There followed 9 miles of hard slog against a head wind that had me sweating buckets thanks to the yellow's fantastic waterproofing. Might have just as well exposed myself to the elements !!!
