  • f*ck me I rode through that (St. Paul's to Putney) and it was a great laugh! I wish i'd have had some lights though... note: the best thing to ride in on days like these are boardshorts :)

  • i thought i'd just wear my bibshorts home, was fine until it started hailing, clearly need to htfu and man up a little but it stung!

  • Me and Turd Fergursson had an interesting time of trying to go out for a ride today. Every time we got up to go out, the rain would kick up again. Got soaked on the way home ;_;

  • htfu you lot - that ride was fuckin EPIC - why do drivers go so fuckin nuts in the rain!@£$%^

    w1 ---> se15 dodging the lightning strikes ...get in

    That's how I feel about it. Best ride home in ages, almost constant thrills.

    Just the bi shorts? Didn't your bag chaff on your nipples?

  • I had a fun ride, rain had stopped but there were giant puddles i figured i was going to get regardless so i rode like a little kid though them it was pretty fun until less than a few minutes before home i got a puncture. I walked the rest of the way .

  • That was shit hot fun. Waves coming at me courtesy of cars on the A4 was a blast.

    What wasn't a blast however was the fact the part of the roof at Victoria station caved in causing the station to close completely. Cue me riding onwards to Brixton, and ending up getting home an hour late, a bit cold and a bit damp.

    At least I now know what Brixton Cycles looks like!

  • Managed to lock up the bike just in time to avoid the mass hail. But came home to dogs going mental, water pouring through open windows, and water dripping from the ceiling into the bedroom.

    Cue buckets, dog treats, and lots of towels.

  • i'll drink to that

  • my nipples survived, assos make chamois cream, rapha do me a special nipple lube

  • lolrain

  • It was rain. And not that much of it.

    Srsly, ppl. Pls.

    There were stair rods on the embankment..... at one stage visibility was 20ft max.... and just for laughs one set of lights was out and a cab decided a manic pull out from a side road in front of oncoming traffic..... cars swerved everywhere & I took to the pavement quickly!

  • So i got Wet AGAIN!! soaked through jeans & socks. Now my Shinamo MTB shoes r starting to Pong a bit... Who else got Wet today, this week, this month! its been so wet & i've been caught in every fucking rainy day

  • I cycled home in the rain this evening and thoroughly enjoyed myself.. As long as you have nothing to do at the other end I think it's actually quite fun

  • seal skinz. for the dry foot.

  • my Shimano MTB spd VS Sidi for water resistance & waterproofness
    was looking at the Dominator pro's they have GORETEX!

    It was nice whilst you were away!

  • Htfu

  • Beautiful ride tonight from Putney to Islington in the rain with a tail wind.

  • the reason hipsters live out east is that they can not pedal against the headwind going west at the end of a day's work

  • I quite enjoyed the ride home in the rain I always feel quicker, overshoes+rearmudgard+waterproof 3/4+montane jacket FTW

  • Managed to miss ALL of the rain by being in strategically-timed meetings every time it was tipping it down. ;)

  • when I got home I kind of wanted to get back out there again and just go for a ride to nowhere

  • my Shimano MTB spd VS Sidi for water resistance & waterproofness
    was looking at the Dominator pro's they have GORETEX!

    Who told they have goretex? the Hydro and the diablo do but they are the only ones.
    and they only come in the boot form.
