Where did summer go?


Since my ride at the start of the month, when June set out with the promise of being a sizzler, the east wind kicked up, rain set in and temperatures dropped. It's felt like winter this last week or so with the thermometer reading as low as 5C. Last year I think I wore shorts every day in June and July but they're back in the wardrobe now. Things are looking up as this week progresses. At least it's dry and the skies are brighter but the sun has been seen very little and temps have been around 10C. It was sufficiently unseasonal last week that this buggy rider had its cover on., It was spotted on the pavement (sidewalk in US), which is considerably safer than on the road.
