No commute today
 

:cry: Tropical storm/deppersion or what ever they call it. 20+ mile hr wind and 6-8" of rain made me leave the bike at home. :mad:

I walked my 1 and a half mile this morning.

Yeah was raining hard where I live too, bottled it and took the bus. Would've been sunny for the journey home though.

Not liking the weather... I didn't ride today either because of the same tropical depression.

Didn' ride today because I woke up late. Damn alarm. How dare it not be set by me.

Sounds like it's a good day to be living in Victoria BC.

Showoff!:D The schwalbe tires on my bike would not float it down the street. DRAT!

I will take the rain and heat in the summer, to ride all year without freezing in the winter. :)

Well someone from my old home county, which part of Staffs???

and I promise not to mention the weather here, honest ;)

It's actually pretty temperate here in the winter... we live in the "other" Canada. Last winter we had -0- inches of snow, and it dropped below freezing only a few times. It does get wet and chilly here, but nothing you can't ride in if you have proper clothing.

Sneyd Green, Stoke on trent, and I commute to Kidsgrove

Well well well a Stoke boy, I'm from Burslem originally, though my family now live not far from you around Baddeley Green. I should be coming back for a visit in the next few months, and I'm looking forward to the oatcakes ;)
You commute to Kidsgrove, that's a nice commute you got there, some bl**dy hills. No wonder you didn't want to do it in the rain :D
Now the question remains, Port Vale or Stoke City? :lol:

No commute for me either, but we're going to a waterpark instead of dealing w/ a tropical storm -- stay safe!

Neither, I'm from Yorkshire originally but moved here to work 24 years ago, I've occasionally gone to the Vale when Huddersfield have played there but I'm not a regular by any means.

The council have done a bang up job of paving the old railways and canal towpaths around here so I can do a flat commute if I feel like it, but I prefer to include a few hills to keep my fitness up a bit, even as far as including Mow Cop occasionally.

Oh and I don't like oatcakes :-b
