I rode home in the rain today. I started off as smirr (light scottish mist) and developed into full blown big highland drops.

Nothing like a good cycle ride in a downpour to lift your mood. Everybody is running around trying to avoid getting wet, you are past that point. You have joined the totally sodden andf you would be miserable except that: a) you are on a bike and b) you will be home soon, to dry off and warm up.

So I arrived back, got out of the wet clothes and got myself a large hot drink to settle in with the wife. Very nice.
