As forecast is was bloomin' cold today, a really fresh wind from the east courtesy of Mr Putin. With a temperature of 3 degrees mid afternoon it was always going to be chilly on the eastbound bits of today. Decided to just stay around Weston and keep to the flat roads. With a longish ride planned tomorrow with some of the Old Gits, didn't want to push it too much today. Managed to do just under 21 miles but could not avoid a couple of railway bridges but that was no big deal. In fact, went the whole distance without changing gear but there was no rush, the plan was to take it easy.
Heading east at one point, the muscles in the face seemed to seize up, good job it was a solo ride, could never have had a sensible conversation like that (so what's new you say). Despite the cold, it was a good ride, just need to ensure the thermals are ready for the morning.
