i know, but you can't i have to take into consideration all aspects of riders ability and the route, its not like if it chucked t down we could open it up and head for home

don't care who you are - it's no fun riding in the rain

ahh well it may have been a bad call, it might well have been a good call, we will find out by end of the day.

Good Call, it isnt fun getting caught a hundred miles from home on a long route if it does turn to solid rain, was bad enough a couple of weekends ago when i was up Torrinton way and it rained non stop all the way back to Newton, was absolutely wet through and hacked off by the time i got home.........

Good call.

Knowing I could've been out all day riding, it was particularly difficult today to cope with the busy household of my four kids all aged 5 and under!

I managed to get out for an hour, but with the ice cold rain falling on me regularly, I was soon taking short cuts home.

See you all in Sept I guess!

Rained on and off all day down here, did nothing, watched the MotoGP then slept most of the afternoon before a slapup tea and now for a bit of Battlefield 2 :) :)
