The Great British Weather

Where are you? It's still shorts & t-shirts in London

Don't use Mick as a yardstick by which to measure the rest of the population.

Cold ears = Headwear selection fail
Cold fingers = Glove selection fail
Chills, slight fever, sore throat, headache = potential manflu

Massive fail, should've stayed at home...

Morning, morning.. Lovely and fresh today isn't it..
Glove selection win.
Head warm win
Rapha snood win..

have cycled in shorts and a t-shirt everyday since feb 17th, however this morning i decided the time had come to pull on a pair of socks and and a long sleeved t-shirt
it was a bit chilly last night heading home last night

it's nice to be snug and warm very much underrated

I need some new gloves. My circulation in my hands is poor, to the point my hands are blue. Apart from that I'm nice and snug on the way to work wearing goretex jacket and winter bibs.

I was sceptical that Defeet Dura gloves would be enough this morning but they coped fine. Quite an open mesh but kept my hands toastie, though they are absolutely shit in the wet.

Still got Sealskins and Altura Shields to go to when it gets colder or wetter

Wearing those myself- really good, cut the wind out and keep your fingers cosy.

Last night riding home in the t-shirt was a bit nippy, this morning the merino base and softshell was a slight over reaction. Nearly passed out from heatstroke.

Brrr. Fog is cold.

Not easy to see through either

Why were you riding on the river?

Means I can sneak past Tooley street without HatBeard spotting me

I believe he hides under the bridge..

Is that where the term "estuary English" comes from?

Pretty chilly out there this morning! might have to switch to full finger gloves soon!

You're supposed to spot HatBeard, not him spotting you. :)

I believe he hides under the bridge..

hmmm

balls, should have checked forecast before leaving the flat this morning.

30/40+ mph winds for the last 8 days and predicted for the next 7.

Meh.

Buy a kite?

I have no idea where I'd end up.

off the Isle of Man, and that's good enough a reason to buy one

:^]

I could land in england, that would suck.
