Took the bike on a family holiday to Norfolk. Every day except for Tuesday the weather app forecasted rain so when it came round I got up, threw a pb + b sandwich into the bag and set off to ride two lengths of NCN connected by an unpaved and extremely gnarly rail trail.
Typical Norfolk riding. Always at risk of stopping at too many cafes and finishing up over caffeinated and dehydrated. It started raining as soon as I was far enough away from the house to make turning back seem unpalatable. I hate riding in the rain without mudguards. It feels like I'm letting my clothes down. But on this trip I had brought a dusty Vaude poncho which kept me and them suitably protected. I really like this bike. Need to get a win wing or fendor bendor to leave in the frame bag though.
