Getting more rides in now although still only about 7 to 10 degrees and still windy. Forecast wind is less than what it actually is. I'd say about 5 MPH more.

We had an absolutely gorgeous weekend. Two days of 17 degrees and sunshine.

I did lots of cleaning, tidying, and laundry, moved my home office, and not a foot on the bike.

All the stuff I got done was quite satisfying, but a bike ride would have made it better :)

hi,
Yes it was sun burning time over the weekend in the south of England, I lay down for about half an hour and later on I noticed my ankles were sunburnt because I was wearing my socks :lol:

First rain here for weeks, expecting a parcel so waiting in. Every cloud has a silver lining I suppose.
Just remember, when you’re over the hill, you begin to pick up speed. :lol:

Hi,
Yes it's all ideal camping and riding time at the moment.
A short walk on Dartmoor yesterday, very little breeze to chill, So stop for a while to soak up the sun.
Itching to strap on the tent at the moment :)

Blowing a howling gale with stair rod rain but this was our coast yesterday while on a ride.

Looking out from White Park Bay towards Rathlin island.

It's supposed to be windy and rainy, but as the wind is from the SW, we don't feel it. Calm out there now, but no doubt it's very windy up out of the valley.

Rain?
Not seen any for weeks - perhaps the odd sprinkle once or twice, but everything is bone dry out there.

Weather radar as of now.
