I got caught in the Richmond park queue for about 30 minutes, and almost drowned in the rain once I got past as it was lashing down.
Rain was so heavy it was dislodging my contact lenses, and when I had my visors, I could see hardly anything as water was streaming down the inside and outside.
Forgot to turn my Garmin back on after I paused it for about 30 minutes, only remembered when I got to Hampton Court.
Then my garmin mount decided to spit out the hex bolt, so I spent 20 miles making sure my garmin was still on my handlebars.
5h 11, 4:42 ride time, average 18mph which I'm pretty happy with, considering my limited training, the apocalyptic rain and my dodgy knee.
