#MyCyclingWeekend with Decathlon - We have a winner

This weekend was an exercise in guessing the weather.

Despite our best efforts, there were times when we were soaked and frozen and then less than an hour later, way too hot.

But at least the sun is still plenty warm enough to dry us out after the soaking from those heavy showers. Every cloud and all that!

One thing that we forgot about was how much debris is washed into the road after heavy rain and it seems that some of you were caught out by multiple punctures.

Our winner this weekend seems to have been alternating between battling headwinds and seeing exotic animals. It's an odd combination!

Headwind, Giraffes, headwind, zebras, raccoons, headwind, pheasants, frogs, headwind, a close call with a cow and lots of churches. Did I mention the headwind... 177miles clocked up with mates. Brutal fun in the wind. #mycyclingweekend #rlscc

You gotta love our weather just now..... Headed over to HQ for the club ride in summer kit, got soaked , freezing cold, arranged to meet the gang outside Brize base, blasted home to change in to a Castelli Perfetto jersey. An hour later, bright sunshine and blue skies Great ride, good sensations again even after yesterday’s efforts in the TT. Fixing the third puncture of the ride by the road side #mickeycranks #mickeycrankscyclingclub @mickeycrankscc #coffeeandcake #clubride #ridelots #cyclist #cycling #strava #cyclingphotos #whereiride #instacycle #instacycling #roadslikethese #mycyclingweekend #roadbike #iamspecialized #iamspecialized_road #roadcycling #rideyourbike #lifebehindbars #rideeatsleeprepeat
