finally some rain........
 
It's been extremely hot and dry for months in Brisbane. I just looked out the window and it looks as though I'll be riding home in the rain. So finally my garden gets a drink but it might be cold riding home.

My friends from Australia suffer from those 40+ temperatures too :/

They've been eating ice-cream all day, all night.

I got a flat about 4 miles from home.

You're not the only folks without rain. It's bitterly cold here, but we're still in a drought.

Cheers to rain gear, spare tubes, patches, pumps and the like. Hopefully you had enough of all that to deal with the situation.

We had rain late last week and both days on the weekend, but this week has been cool, but dry.
