Hello


Just back from the Pyrenees.
Never thought one can get enough of curves.
After 10 Days I enjoyd the freeway through France.


By the way, there were a lot of british bikers, wonder why?

And the weather you encountered was good/bad/indifferent?

Broadly, only the west of the UK and quite a lot of Scotland in particular has been able to match those conditions during the past couple of weeks; even then, not as warm as 20C.
Perhaps 15C on a good day, in a sheltered location out of the breeze.
There has been very little precipitation though.

That's why we go to places like the Pyrenees "later in the season" to ride bikes.

i'm a northwest england daily commuter (20 mile each way)
i'm currently wearing full winter gear; base layers, thick trousers, long sleeve t shirt, jumper, belay jacket, then leather bike jacket. full winter gloves
always carry the waterproofs too, but thats a all year thing.
usually a bit too cold in the morning, too warm in the evening.
its one of them 'hope for the best, prepare for the worst' sort of situations up here.
