Marrickville - Balmoral - North Head - West Head - Akuna Bay return via Gladesville Bridge, 138km.
I'm hungry, time to hit the seafood banquet at the Cyprus Club, Stanmore.
Have a great ride,

Dry by the time I finished, guess the bike needed a clean.

Treated myself to a bit of HTFU with a jaunt through the RNP and returned via the Otford Wall
Felt good.

It's not a bad commute when the only threat is rain - & even that didn't eventuate

Despite a less than stellar forecast, the weather this morning was also very pleasant - cloudy, but no rain and a cool but comfortable temperature. More traffic on the roads after school holidays, but still lighter than normal. Sun is out now so it looks like very pleasant conditions for the trip home.

At least the ride home at 4pm is now much nicer.

Anyway, I had a rain jacket + waterproof leg warmers which I put over my waterproof shoe covers. I don't know how but my shoes were drenched in rain when I finished my 35k commute. Only thing I can think of was the rain soaking through my bibs, down my leg under the leg warmers then through the socks OR up underneath my shoe.
Don't think I'll be doing this too much though as:
1) Fogging up glasses (with RX clip)
2) The dirt spray up the front and rear (no mud guards and dont intend on putting any on my roadie)
3) I'm quite nervous taking corners in the wet
4) Low visibility as light doesnt reflect too great on wet roads + truck spraying a cloud of mist when they pass.
Could this be an excuse for a wet bike? Always wanted a hard tail mountain bike

Clear skies, windy but big black clouds coming from the south west.
Luckily I only got a few drops as I passed through Surry Hills at the end of my ride.
A bit wild now.
Ride safe,

You bet it is. Any good reason for N+1.NhiTrac wrote:Could this be an excuse for a wet bike? Always wanted a hard tail mountain bike
Wet ride in this morning as well - I don't have a wet weather bike I just ride my usual and then give it a good clean.
The good news is that I had the section of M7 I ride all to myself this morning and also it currently looks like it is clearing for the ride home. (fingers crossed)
