Just popped out for an hour and a quarter as the cloud started to break, it looked a bit warmer than it actually was, you know how you get that feeling when you just haven't put enough on!!!

Well, I'd opted for just a teeshirt and a windproof, MISTAKE!!!

At least it made sure I kept the pace up to try and stay warm, or was I actually cooloing down as a result of the windchill effect I was creating. Well, I knew I had had a good workout by the time I got home.

looks like more of the same for the weather tomorrow, I will be prepared this time Embarassed Embarassed Embarassed

Looking good for Sunday, may get on the road bike for spin out to Suggitt's for a cuppa. I've got a pair of road tyres called Rubino II by Vittoria, there are really racing tyres, but who cares.

Suggetts will definetely be the place to be with those tyres on, on Sunday, Agman, it is a bit of a Mecca for local and not so local roadies.

I was considering venturing off road for a couple of hours tomorrow but I think I now fancy a road ride out to Westerdale via Stokesley and Kildale and return via Castleton and Guisborough. I should clock up about 43 mile and am hoping to do it in bang on 3 hours.

Looking at the forecast on text it is going to be cool again tomorrow Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes

Yes, the Rubino's are brand new and Black/Red in colour. Hope to get the SKS mudguards on by the week-end, in place of race-blades. Suggetts can get full by mid-day, I aim for 10:00am.
