Rather suddenly, I'm back to a four-day week with one day at my old location (only 3-miles each way) and three days at my current location (a more substantial 10-miles each way). For the one day at my old location I thought I'd wear normal clothes and I dug out some flat pedals so rode in nice and slowly so as not to get all sweaty. Today, my week started with a proper soaking. It hammered down almost as soon as I left the house and, even on the cycle path, I got the 'bow wave' off several large vehicles who ploughed through the pools of water on the adjacent main road. Man, I was wetter than an otter's pocket! My cycling kit hadn't dried out by home time so I had to put it on whilst still damp and my cycling shoes were still very wet. Nevermind, it's a good weather forecast for tomorrow so I'll be on my road bike without fenders.
