I actually enjoyed my ride in this morning and even felt quite nicely awake when I got to work. No friggen wind and I only had to blast my horn 3 times this morning due to my 'invisibility'! :yeah:

I like the extra sun in the mornings! Makes me wake up sooner.

Oh yes indeedy. And the rains been falling long enough to wash most of the crappy stuff off the road.

Thank goodness for decent wet weather gear, and my Conti Road Attacks.

Ermmm probably not the best decision of my life that - turns out we don't have summer here yet - we have monsoon season instead....

"Will I need the wets over the top?" I asked myself before the ride. "Nah - its only overcast..."

Ha fucking ha. Hadn't gone far and ran into some of the heaviest rain for a while. Being a typical procrastinator, I didn't bother to stop and get the wets on - they are a pain anyway, so I just carried on regardless. And was soon wet through - boots filled up specially when I had to slow down in the 50k zones. Then the jacket vents started to admit water and then it ran down inside the jacket and thence down inside the trou (brrrr!). By which time it was "Arrr fuckit too late now"

Now for three days of drying out the gear...

But the ride was fun anyway despite cars without lights emerging from the murk every so often.


Moral of the story: Put the wets on before you leave.

So in your summer there are no cloudy days.... or rain. Yeah right, Tui.

You'd probably be the first to complain when it's too hot as well.:sweatdrop

Summers here :woohoo:
