I'm out as well. Ventured out Thurs eve and it absolutely dumped on us in South Molton, and didn't get away from it for 45 mins. Took hours to clean the bike today and the kit has only just dried out. Don't want to go through that again tomorrow 😒

Sunday 05.56......just checked the forecasts. Any showers about now are due to have petered out by 07.00 with clear weather up to 13.00 when the next showers are coming over. Doubt very much if one will be "soaked all day"...

I'm sure the actual ride will be fine Brian. It's just for those of us further away, the forecast ride back isn't looking good.

Yep, get that John. I don't want to be out too long after 13.00 myself.
08.04 and it hasn't rained here in North Molton for over 2 hours. More blue in the sky than clouds. I'll post pic's of the ride if my camera can cope with the bright sunlight :mrgreen:

Only hassle was just south of Holsworthy we felt two spots of rain so Roy had to stop and take ten minutes to put overtrousers over his overtrousers :roll:

Yum Yum cake, went down very well.
Good route with mostly dry roads, so we were able to maintain swift progress.
Keep in the locker for future use.
Thanks Brian.
