Indeed, in Harrogate (west side North Yorks, near the moors) its drizzling and expected to stay all day.

Still, great last couple of days eh!

London. Rubbish yesterday and raining again this morning. Quite glad as we'd planned an "indoor" weekend.

Summer is over boys, on with the baselayers & waterproofs for the next 6 months. Dig out those lights and put on the determined grimace of a man who will ride whatever the weather!

Down the road from OP over the border in Herefordshire. Rained all night, drizzling now, kids doing the Ledbury Carnival Parade in a bit. Hope they're using boats this year! Yesterday was pretty horrible as well. Felt like an autumn ride.

Working in Scotland this week, so hope it's like that ^^^

Pretty nice here in mid Wales by all accounts, rained overnight though so a tad worried about ice rink-esque the local woods are going to be!

Glorious sunshine in Cumbria. Just loaded the canoe into the car - however I suspect getting parked at Crummock might be challenging if the rest of my family don't get a move on... 🙂

The first day in nearly a week the forecast is for less than 30°C max. It's been over 35 most days which is rare for late August.

Drying up in Swansea after a very wet start. I'm sure the rainlessness* will spread east.

*lets not pretend it's nice yet... 😆

Those in foreign climes need not reply! Especially if it's sunny, this is a self pitying thread, thanks. Persisting it down in Notts.

Dry but overcast here in Lancs.

Ideal conditions to finish off that Strava slimbing challenge this arvo.

🙂

It's a beautiful sunny day up in NW Cumbria. It feels very strange to have an August bank holiday that's not pissing down.

Due to knock off work soon, and been looking forward to heading out to complete the last bit of the August climbing challenge on Strava.

So obviously it's just started raining.

Today was much like the rest of Aug-tober really, not hot, but not cold, it rained a bit, the wind blew a bit but nothing that would ruin your day - not the stuff of rose-tinted memories of summers gone, but hardly apocalyptic either - it's not interesting enough to use a swear word, just rubbish.

I hoped for a warmer, sunnier autumn, but I can't help but notice that's it's pitch dark at 9pm, i reckon I've got 2-3 weeks of mid-week rides left before it's too dark and I have to scurry back to the ****ing gym for 6 months.

Did an MTBO event in North Yorkshire. Incredibly soggy ground considering the weather up to last night had been OK. Finally stopped raining about 2 hours in so got back to the finish steaming gently.

Suicide provoking weather in Hampshire. Much the same way I feel about all of Britain. Need to move somewhere that's not a cesspit with awful weather - or at least is nice in some way.

Id popped into town to get some bits and bobs and then back on to the muddy trails home when a downpour hit. I had that very real pleasure of sitting in the lee of a big tree, completely sheltered where I looked at the scenery, ate a pork pie and drank a tin of Carlsberg watching the clouds drift by and listening to Pink Floyd.
Then I stood up, pissed the mud off my mechs and carried on home. Bank Holiday Monday innit?
