More of the wet stuff



Terrible weather again yesterday and blowing a gale in the afternoon.
Anne and I spent the day decorating in the kitchen.
Finished by 4.30 so went for a jog down in Hunterston estate, there's a bit of shelter from the wind in the trees.
The ground is getting waterlogged, if it doesn't stop raining soon the ground will be back to winter soggyness, I could hardly keep my feet when off the main tracks and of course the trainers got very wet again.

Still raining this morning but not so windy so should manage a brolly/welly walk sometime. I have a little place I want to investigate but it may be a bit exposed in places.

5.45pm took a walk with brollies and wellies around Ladymuir 6km south of Kilmacolm on the B786.
It was extremely wet and boggy but the last bit down toward Ladymuir farm was not so bad, there may be a chance of a return route variation on the Kilmacolm MTB route but I will need to investigate the track down to Muirshiel and perhaps more around Kilmacolm.

The way this weather is going, we are going to need at least a week of sunshine to get the trails even reasonably dry.

Noticed that on your Kilmarnock circle, that you seem to have found every cafe along it, how do you secure your bike when in for a cuppa

The cafe at Fenwick has closed so I should alter the route map.
I use a little combination lock cheap and nasty but it makes it awkward for any quick snatch and I try to sit where I can keep an eye on the bike.
