bloody rain..

[Admiral Huddy]

It's not fun riding your bike in the wet and January seems to be the wettest I recall recently. However, last week I experienced something completely different...

I was cycling on a cycle path in Chelmsford town centre which goes under main road near the Odeon round-a-bout next to the river Chelmer.

Anyway, the path dips down slightly and at the bottom was a puddle. Only it wasn't a puddle, it was now part of the river. I was soon up to my waist in water and fell off. Sitting upto my shoulder in water, pitch black and freezing cold, I decided NOT to go home, but carry on to work and have a shower there. Big mistake as the shower at work was out of order.

I keep my suit, shirts and shoes at work but no change of socks so I had to wear my gym socks for the morning. At lunch time, I took my bike gear, boots and works socks and dried them off in the Gyms Sauna. Apparently, there where complaints.

When my tea shirt dried, there was a brown ring at the bottom.

Never rains, always pours!
