Just in case you were wondering, the weekend – last weekend – was a total wash-out. It rained almost constantly throughout Saturday and Sunday so there was no cycling. Andy wasn't planning on going Saturday, but it was pouring down outside so I didn't go either. Sunday? Rain. On and off all day. The weather has been like that: one minute sunshine, the next rain and it's set to continue. Outside now (on 2 May 2012 at 0713hrs) it's grey and a little blustery. Compare this year with last year when we had summer-like conditions throughout April and May.
That's it. What's in the news? Briefly: Rupert Murdoch has been described as unfit to run a huge media organisation like News International. I agree. There's loads of other news, but right now I've got to go to work.
Andy's not going cycling (with me) this weekend. He's off to cycle, largely off road, on the South Downs Way. Expect photos soon. I'll endeavour to drum up the enthusiasm to go alone, or I might meet up with Jon. Or, of course, a mixture of the two.
We ride our trusty bicycles most weekends. This blog charts our adventures and records our thoughts as we ride through the rural lanes of Surrey and Northern Kent – and there's some world travel thrown in too
