This is mainly down to mislaying my gloves, and not any warming in the weather. However, having got used to it now, the only reason I'm thinking of some nice new fingerless gloves is down to needing the padding over that tricky nerve in the palm.</p> <p>And now I have a craving for BBQ.... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16178#post-214626 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 15:22:42 +0000 The Boy 214626@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>That's one step away from lighting a barbecue. At least we know who to blame when it rains... </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16178#post-214624 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 15:18:23 +0000 deckard112 214624@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I undertook the highly dangerous and controversial step of removing my mudguards for this mornings commute. Thus far I am dry...but the ride home remains open to a deluge regardless of the forecast. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=16178#post-214561 Thu, 17 Mar 2016 09:09:24 +0000 The Boy 214561@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>A toe through each finger'ole and pull 'em up.
