Just to say that me and Green Orange Dave were observing rule 9 today// If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.

A bit of a breeze doesnt classify as Bad Weather.

To be fair, yesterday morning was superb. 16mph tail wind and it was like i was being shoved in the back by Sir Bradley of Wiggo for the first fifteen miles up to Tower Bridge.
And it was dry until I got to Narrow Street, only ten minutes away from the office, and the rain was mad. Raining so hard that it took me from warm, dry and slightly sweaty to totally soaked to the bone, shoes, gloves, shorts, the lot and shivering.
Before I left for home we were watching people try to cross that little bridge that goes from where the 1CP smokers congregate to the back of Waitrose. They were literally having to hold on to the guard rail to stop themselves being blown away and there were chairs from Jamies restaurant flying around all over the place.
But again once I got on the bike and away from the wind tunnel that is Canary Wharf the wind died down and the rain stopped. Crossing Tower Bridge was a bit hairy with the cross wind but apart from that a reasonable ride home.
