The forecast was heavy showers and, yes, it was real ‘fill your socks’ weather. Four of us set off from the marketplace as the downpour intensified. One dropped off fairly early – saturated socks. Another joined us at Coleshill, having missed the start.
After snacking well in sunshine we resumed our ride and almost immediately were hit by a heavy downpour. We were drenched when we reached Faringdon. At this point the skies brightened, the rain stopped and we returned to Wantage in glorious sunshine.
What fun!
