Well, just sitting around inside & looking out at the bright sunshine & blue skies here in South Oz, you could easily be fooled into thinking it's a great day for a ryde (& it
was when I went out just after dawn this morning!

hyea: )
But step outside now & you'll get slammed by the full force of the gale force winds that've blown straight thru everything between here & the South Pole and you'll rapidly change your mind!! :gaah: The BoM told us to expect '
Clearing showers & a high of 15°C' today, and we've scored all that, only also with these Gale force winds blowing straight off the Glaciers of the Antarctic Continent soo bloody hard that any possibility of rain was simply blown right on past us... (you'll probably see our 'clearing showers' & a few hats & umbrellas blowing past any moment now - or maybe they're
already well past you lot?!

) Besides, it's too bloody cold to rain atm!! :shocked:
Even more importantly tho, apart from the odd exception, my early morning rydes are getting warmer & earlier again; I'm not having to layer up
quite so much & I haven't been mistaken for the Michelin Man or an escaped Goodyear Blimp all week!! :clap: Now that our Southern Hemisphere Spring is officially here, the birds are nesting, bees are buzzing, lambs are gambolling, and all those other 'Spring' things are happening as they do;
and the days are getting longer and the sun is getting warmer, but not too hot just yet - so now is a great time to be out Spyder Ryding!

hyea: So I am doing that, at every opportunity! :thumbup: Just not this arvo!
