33 degrees and sunny. Mind you I am on holiday.
Humidity is a bit brutal, still mustn't grumble.

A misty start here in Manchester so we headed over the Pennines and up to Wetherby for breakfast. Then up to Masham for a brew ☕ then over to Hawes for another brew ☕ then down to settle for another brew ☕, then we headed home where it started raining for about the last 20 miles. 185 miles in total, so not a bad day really considering the forecast. 😊

*update*

It's still raining here this morning.

I've got to go out and fill the bike up at some point ready for my early start on Wednesday. It's one ride i'm not looking forward to to be honest. The ride there will be mainly in the dark so i'm hoping the rain will hold off. But i will get to use all my extra lights :lol:

I did a ride from Shropshire up to Keilder Water & back on Saturday. Most of it wasn't too bad, but boy did it lash it down on the M6/56 around Warrington on the way back. Proper Hollywood rain. I couldn't hear the thunder but I could see the flashes of lightning! All I'll say is thank goodness for Gore-Tex.
Sunday it rained most of the day.
Today, it's rained most of the day!
