Ride 13\/02\/2022<\/a><\/em> <\/p> \n

Wet, wet veerryy weeett!! I think this is probably the wettest ride I’ve ridden since 2011 and as much as I tried to prepare for this, I wasn’t going to win. So today we were doing the first official club ride of the year which was going to be about 60 odd miles. I new it was going to rain so I had my wet gear and 2 pairs of cloves just to make sure, and as much as it wasn’t hammering it down, it was consistent for the entire ride. This meant that by the time we got to Auchtermuchty, our cafe stop, I was soaked through and through. The cafe stop was probably the best one we’ve had in quite a while, great food and service. A bowl of soup, coffee and cake later and I was ready to crack on, although I was only partially dried out and I did put on my second set of gloves at this point. On the road back to home we had a couple of punctures and mechanicals which slowed us down a bit, and we did take the shortest route home rather than doing the course that was set out, mainly to get out of the rain as quickly as possible, but overall I think it was worth doing the ride <\/span> So 59 miles clocked up, this was enough for me I was soaked and a little cold and just wanted to get home to a warm shower, at an avg speed of 15 mph. I will be glad when we can get out of the monsoon season and into a more drier one. <\/p> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
