Distinguished Gentleman's Ride 2021

The best laid plans of nice and men.

The weather this week has been terrible. It's May but you would be forgiven into thinking it was January or February.

In the occasional sunshine temperatures get into double figures centigrade. A high of 14°C is greeted with people taking off a jumper or two.

But raincoats are still retained. 

The forecast is for the same for the next few days including the weekend. That means heavy rain and hail storms every day. 

The wind is also up. It's strong enough to have many places closed due to the danger of falling trees.

This makes the chances of taking a highly polished motorcycle out in that weather seem very unlikely.

The DGR is in doubt here!

Not that it matters much as I haven't had any sponsors any way.
