Going out in adverse conditions.

[Celtic Dragon]

Woke up a bit later than planned and feeling slightly hungover, (but I don't drink so don't know how that happened), so I missed the good weather. Now its blowing a gale, and a friends weather station has recorded 40 mph gusts!

Do you lot go out in conditions like this, or just chalk it up to experiance and do something else? I live at the start of the fens so there is no shelter on my routes, and I have been blown on to the other side of the road before.

The correct clothing and you won't notice the adverse conditions, time to MTFU

I get the MTFU point, but correct clothing or not, your going to notice a 40 mph side wind!

Unless he followed them, if so, Kudos (make sure you get a good wind-assisted KOM).

Rules were meant to be broken!

This post was brought to you by B+H! KOMs are a pipe dream at the momment.

Been out and came back. Met a guy who lives on the next road and is a memeber of the local masachistic club (Triathlon) who advised its not nice out there. Trees and branches are down in the roads and he came off in a gust.


Going for a walk instead. Any exercise is good, right!

Should have been around Herts/Beds way. I was at Woburn Sands - in the woods there was no wind at all. We were complaining about the heat!

I am, I'm just out side Sandy on the top of the hill by the TV mast!
