What a Glorious ride!

Just enjoyed the ride in SO much this morning I felt a post was in order :-)

The first dry, warm morning for quite a while - i was waterproofless and it
felt brilliant... Also I encountered the rarest of rare things this
monring.... a TAILWIND! I didnt think they existed!

It felt the whole world was with me whilst i rode into work listening to the
melodic chimes of The Thrills. I couldve rode another 8 miles!

Ahhhh i feel all relaxed now and ready for the ride home :-) just hope
there is no wind and its dryish!

I had the opposite, probably the wettest ride home ever. Just
after the thunder and lightning, cycling up hill into the wind
avoiding the hailstone drifts and the rivers of water flowing
down the road. The rain was so heavy running down my face I
couldn't breath through my nose.

When I got home my wife had kindly opened the garage door for me.
I put the bike away and went to close the door and that was when
I got the biggest soaking of the day, all the water on top of the
door came straight down on me.

After thinking long about a signature I've decided not to bother.

Oh dear! If it makes you feel any better, my ride home was atrocious.
Discovered ANOTHER (thats 4 in 2 weeks) puncture to my rear wheel - quick
ride to Halfords, changed, new tyre etc. then ride home as fast as possible
as had to be somewhere that night - record time home im sure, but the wind
was against me (REALLY REALLY against me) and stupid parking and peds didnt
help matters - so i had a nice relaxing ride in but felt like an axe
murderer when i got home!
