Day 40 - Between the Showers

A break in the showers this morning, allowed me a pleasant ride out to Colyton. Into a golden sun rise and through the sea mist and fog, I cycled. Passing a fellow rider coming in the other direction, I was gad of my day-glow top and flickering neons, as I feared whether any speeding motorist would even see him in his darkened outfit! Another dig on the lack of cycle paths.

I was pleased not to have any major hills to climb today as my legs have been complaining something rotten! Is this something athletes just learn to live with? I was also not planning to do the Colyton circuit today, but once I got rolling, I just did not want to stop and with tomorrow looking like it may be another wash out, I was pleased to get another 8 miles under my belt.

Whatever happens with the weather tomorrow, at least I have interesting outing planned for Friday. More on that later!
