I managed a lovely warm sunny spin into town with a tailwind, rumbled past the Meadows and then bam! Spent the next half an hour completely soaked and freezing cold, while rueing the fact that my rear light fell off a hundred or two miles ago and I hadn't got around to replacing it.</p> <p>A hot bath is a very appealing prospect. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=831#post-7663 Thu, 27 May 2010 17:34:06 +0000 Kim 7663@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>It is just short sharp showers, if you are lucky you can miss them. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=831#post-7661 Thu, 27 May 2010 17:26:09 +0000 Kirst 7661@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Torrential in my Taggart-like industrial wasteland in the south east of the city, and I have a long walk to the bus stop.
