Drizzle. Not like you get on a lemon cake but the stuff from the sky. Waterproofs on but although you could feel it on your face (my face!) you didn't really get that wet! Just hot!

A daily (not always) blog about my cycling and the world as it unfurls around me. I set myself a challenge to cycle 2000 miles during the year (mostly by cycling to work and back) and this is the record of how I achieve the aim and all the things that happen on the way!!!

Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud
Time on Bike: 42 Minutes
Distance Travelled: 11.33 Miles
Average Speed: 16.2mph
Weight: 13st 12lb
Totals: 10 Hours 7 Minutes, 160.19 Miles, 15.83 mph
My waterproofs, my foot guards and some of my actual clothing is now all covered in mud. With the return of inclement weather and positively dull afternoon / evenings I curtailed my route home, taking in the Acton loop. On arriving at the descendant part of the course I was greeted with makeshift farmer's sign that read - MUD ON ROAD. Great! Of course whilst riding through you don't really notice but when I got home my foot protectors were brown and there was a wide muddy stripe up my back.
It's cold again as well. I could honestly do with some rain tonight to wash things down a bit!
