…yes, in my mind it is.
But i’m still in summer mode.
So on i ride today (the 30 mins i can squeeze in between getting home from school and it getting dark between), I rode down a lane where there were sheep with condensation in their breath, trees at the roadside with no leaves, the hedgerows were dead.
So on this moist road in the cold i realised that have not yet witnessed the transition from summer to winter. After the last TT of the year I took my add-on areo bars off and since then i havent touched my bike: no mudguards or good lights. My clothing has also stayed in the summer: it was mid october before I started using leg warmers: I still don’t have overshoes or a proper cycling Jacket.
So today it dawned on me that i needed a proper mudguards at least, before I stain my white jersey.
