Same during the night in Edinburgh. Started 15min after I cycled to work (night shift) and than carried on raining heavily through the night. It`s ok now. Last year at this time it wasn't raining as heavy but more often plus it was colder. Good I've got full mudguards on my bike 🙂

Sheeting it down in the mountains north of Madrid (and windy and cold) so today's club ride consisted of a coffee in the local bar (bunch of soft Mediterranean sangria-swilling jessies). So I went on my own to the big park just outside Madrid and had an awesome couple of hours playing in the mud!

Same here in NW Germany, rain, rain, rain. I've not been out on the bike for a couple of weeks. The trails here do not hold up well at all in the wet. I have been doing lots of muddy trail running though, which i find very theraputic 8). Done 10 filthy miles this morning.

The rain in Spain doesn't only fall on the plain, it's also to the west of Madrid...

So I went for a run. Besides, the bike's in the shop having its fork serviced.

Even here in the Costa-del-sol it´s pouring down today, although it´s the first rain we´ve had for months.
Had to cut the ride short & find a warm bar.

Central Scotland today was nice and sunny if a bit cool.

Now i know i'm an old fart but i do remember this time of year 15 or so years ago would be cold and frosty.

Many times the RAC Rally would be held on forest stages that were frozen solid and even with a good covering of snow. That was always around the 23rd or so of November.

No chance of getting out of the car and falling on your arse on the ice this year. Falling on your arse from mud....oh yes !

Dry in Gloucester until about 3 when it started to rain a bit.
Come six o clock when I need to ride home, massive downpour!
About 50 minutes later I'm home and drenched...
Still enjoyed it though! 🙂

Man, it's ridiculous.
My shed has warped out of shape because the wood has swollen so much, due to being wet continuously for about a month now.

When will it end?
