The weather forecast was for rain, 5C warmth, and winds strengthening overnight into Storm Eowyn so I decided not to ride today. I had to go Tarporley way for an errand so drove over and went to Rose Farm Cafe on the off-chance that there might be a few hardy souls there.
And there were! - Nick, Ray S and Keith were supping their hot drinks in cycling gear with Dave M in civvies. Keith decided to ride back to where he had left his car before the rain came through. After Keith had left, Ray and Nick decided to have another coffee with cake with custard to fuel themselves up for their respective rides homewards.
So well after 1100, Ray and Nick set off, Dave went into the Deli and I drove home via Tarvin. The wind had picked up as had the rain. By the time I hit Chester it was torrential with high winds - so I hope Ray and/or Nick weren't caught out in it.
As I write this around midday, the rain had stopped, the wind had abated, and the sun was trying to come out - standard crazy English weather of course!
