Ok. so I know I go on about the weather but today was just the pits. Heard on the radio that Scotland has had the wettest winter in over 100 years and I can confirm it. Looked out the window this morning and it was lashing down, wind from the south. Decided to head south into the wind ( get it over with first ) and do 40 miles. Completed 27 miles and called it a day. Could feel pools of water in my socks, my hands were numb and fingers getting stiff. My waterproof socks had let the rain in but then wouldn't let it out. Slosh,slosh.
Managed another 13 miles on the exercise bike at home, so I got my 40 miles total. Tomorrow looks dryer so will go out again, if my clothes have dried?? No pleasure in this.
Hopefully much more pleasant weather awaits you on your forthcoming trip Janice. Bon Voyage!
