getting wet
i’ve ridden a bike in rain before, but yesterday was something else!
So much for waterproof gear, it had no chance – thank goodness for overly warm hotel rooms! Not sure i would ever say that… It was truly bizare though, once i had got out of the valleys on the 470 it was as dry as it could be, not a drop!
