Spent most of this ride on NCN routes 7 and 1 both sections were splendid today and very different and travelling east and north usually gives you some protection from prevailing winds in these parts. One slight spill from me (knocking some bark off), probably my fault in position, speed and stance on a right turn however a meter length strip of wet tiles gave no quarter.
