Apologies for the lack of blogs but spinning away on the turbo trainer and a few longer walks. Today the sun was trying to get out so I made the decision to sling my leg over the saddle. We had very heavy rain yesterday afternoon and through the night followed by a frost. The lines were in a right old mess with ice, slop, water, puddles, flooding but all the fallen trees had been cut back and a clear track all the way. It was by no ways warm of any sorts. The Garmin was hovering between 1 degree and 2 degrees! The wind made it feel even colder on the way through. There was quite a few others out n about enjoying the short hazy spells of sun. I did not hang around long in Bishop and headed straight back. As I was nearer Bearpark it went very dark and spots of rain started. By the time I got to Langley Park the heavens had opened. All in 27 miles in 2hrs 6mins with 850ft of climbing. I was going to hose off most of the wet mud when I got back but it was that wet and I was cold that got knocked on the head. Below are a few snaps from the ride, enjoy and hopefully more soon-
