So I have been caught out. I am in Dorset and heading back up to London this afternoon the scorching weather has turned to rain and showers. I have all my rain proof kit with me but I have forgot to pack my rain proof gloves.

I am stuck with my short summer gloves which aren’t rain proof. Any good suggestions for resisting the rain for my trip back?

I was thinking of getting a pair of those plastic gloves from the petrol station and wearing them inside my gloves? Hot and sweaty maybe?

Any smart alternatives?

Marigolds from the local co-op?? wink or just suck it up and be a man!

Should I use blue top or green top milk bottles?

Was the most environmentally friendly way to dispose of the milk?

Well I was pretty lucky as it goes as the sun shone for all its worth on my ride back. I took some lovely routes.

Need to get some water proof all season gloves though. Hmmnn shopping to do.
