Just got back from a short ride. I thought I'd get quick a twenty in, after ten, it chucked down, hail, snow, rain, lobsters, small monkeys called Cyril, the lot came down. Sod that says I and I came home soaked through and muddy. I have a shower, put gear in the wash, clean the bike. And now the suns out and not a cloud in the sky. Blumen' typical grrrrrrr. :twisted:

    That's exactly what the weather has done here in the last 1.5 hours. Just about to leave work now for my commute home. Hopefully it will stay dry so I can get a 30 in as last night got cut short due to hail :cry:

    By the time I got home it was just starting to rain. Thought I'd go out anyway. Gave the tyres a squeeze as usual and found the front extremely squishy. Investigation revealed a bloody great thorn. :evil: By the time I'd extracted it from the tyre and fitted a new tube the rain had reached monsoon intensity so I settled for a night on the sofa :(

    On the plus side, I managed to get the tyre off and on again without resorting to tyre levers for the first time, and I had time to patch the old tube successfully. (and discovered that the puncture kit I've been carrying for the past 3 years contained no patches at all!)
