FUN!

Was cycling in the Jura (France) last week. Saw the sun for 3 hours the
whole week. The first day was the wettest i have ever been out in never mind
cycled! My waterproof was not up to the job and my wife's very expensive
goretex cycling jacket worked for a while then it too gave up in disgust!

Spent 3 hours in a cafe at lunch waiting for the rain to ease - it just got
worse!

And you say serious rain can be fun!

Bah! Humbug!

Great holiday though - tremendous food and organisation (Headwater) -
despite the weather.

Drove back 12 hours yesterday - blazing sunshine all the way!
