The Wind and Rain Blows Through Me

Time on Bike: 2 Hours 3 Minutes
Distance Travelled: 33.22 Miles
Average Speed: 16.2mph
Weight: 13st 13lb

Totals: 9 Hours 25 Minutes, 148.86 Miles, 15.81mph

Finally took advantage of some fair weather and got out on the roads at the weekend, although the fair weather didn't last long. Cool sunshine turned into headwinds and by the time I got home I was pleased of the rest. My Sunday morning trek took me out to Lavenham, down to Bridge Street, up to Shimpling, up further to Stansted and then back down into Melford and up Tesco hill to home. Very satisfying.
The rain was with me again this am. After a pointless trip to take the kids to school, who informed me on my arrival that neither of them were going in, I donned waterproofs and took the 3.5 mile journey into the office. Wet head winds followed.
I am hoping that the mood will lighten during the day so my journey home is dry!!

1,851.14 to go!!!!

I'm trying! I'm really trying. But it's the wind that's stopping me. All said and told I think maintaining current average in these conditions is commendable!!!
