sun is out here

Not a lot! But sun is shining so bike is crying out from the garage!

Where is the sun?? I'll go there!!

Its in newton at the moment but think I will just aim to keep out the rain
Forecast is for a good dry afternoon so maybe time to hit the roads

Any rides this afternoon?

Not yet, but Red5 missed Billinom8s ride and Smiler's ride too...

No excuses! Did billinomates ride, excellent if a bit damp in places So here's hoping the afternoon bri ngs better weather and drier roads!

Yeah it's looking better here now, but changable so will go out in a bit & see if I can dodge the showers! Good that Si's ride was fun, but was too early & would have been too quick for me!

Ride safe

May see you out there! If I venture that far north lol

Take care out there

Meeting Kate at minehead for anyone who's about this afternoon?

I thought it was saying "Seek Kate" at first .....

I got drowned yesterday - took bike for MOT, was a bit ahead of time so thought I'd go the long way around immediately started raining stopped whilst MOT was done, then started just as I left

Got back to Newton to be told it had been lovely and dry all the time, so decided to walk the woofer ..... got to Stover, walked about 100yds and it started to drizzle, then just got heavier as I walked

As the song go's .... "Why does it always rain on me ...... " just seems to sum things up at present

Haha Kate, love the vid - did make me giggle! I also thought of getting in one and being a pirate!! That would be awesome..

It's not raining here, but we do have some threatening clouds. Hopefully going out for a little ride later with other half

Hehe... makes you smile on such a wet riding day.
Yep, I missed the ride this morning, off instead of snooze is the official excuse and this afternoon has been potterring about with the WSB on in the back ground. Fixing mending and hitting things with hammers. feelling very manly right now. grrr.

Did you manage to get out Lou? I decided to go to Minehead & met up with Smiler, Mr Smiler, Frag and Bullet there. Wasn't too bad in most places but had a short sharp shower coming home across Exmoor. Will give you a shout next time I'm heading your way if you fancy going out?

Yeah - I reckon Ned Flanders shoulda done that when he had his flash flood!

Sorry you could've joined us in Minehead, but it was fairly hit & miss - but sounds like you had a pretty productive afternoon anyway

Sounds like a plan I did manage to get out for a couple hours, only went on a little ride to wellington it started raining a little in welly so headed back to taunton through what seemed like rush hour traffic (on a sunday?!?!) , was home 5 mins then it rained here, how's that for timing
