My Fan Of… this week is another rainy day on the bikes with some strong winds added for good measure. We’d promised ourselves a quick 10-mile ride to blow away some cobwebs, so we decided to head to the Forth & Clyde Canal. The day we chose started out rainy & windy but was forecast to clear up by 0900. Susan looked out & said the forecast was wrong, & it was going to rain all day; she was right.

We wanted to get out on the bikes, though & so got our wet weather gear and set out into 20mph winds & horizontal rain? & headed to the Canal.

We were a wee bit drookit by the time we got there

We stopped at the top of the hill above the canal to enjoy the views

This is the view on a clear day!

On our way down to the canal, we had a quick chat with some soggy sheep

Once down at the canal, we had a quick breather for some juice & a few pictures.

These are some shots from a previous sunny visit.

Pictures taken, we headed back for a well-deserved coffee & cake. We did get a lot of strange looks from everyone inside the coffee shop as we sat outside in the wind & rain. I think we also weirded them out by being happy & laughing at the fact we were both drenched as we enjoyed our coffees in the fresh air.

Come back next week to see some Lensy re-imaginings.

    You’re an intrepid cyclist. I’m impressed. I stay home and dry if the weather looks like that. I might go for a short jog but that’s it!!
    We were out on Saturday, it started with a short drizzle but then it stayed dry, if a bit cold (at least our backside): https://picturesimperfectblog.wordpress.com/2024/03/25/im-a-fan-of-signal-fires/
