My local rugby team were playing at Hinckley yesterday so I thought I'd take the beast 'back home' for the game. I checked the Met Office App and things didn't look good. Heavy Showers throughout the afternoon so I decided to go in the car (never keen on riding our busy UK roads in those conditions) Upshot was we had two very light showers amid a beautiful sunny October day. Ah well, at least the lads won so not a bad day.
 
Stuff the Met Office. The moral to that story is never let the weather put you off riding. Just carry your wet gear if it looks like you might need it.
 
Don't have an issue with getting wet. Just the conditions on our motorways which are probably more densely populated than those of Canberra's. I do ride in all weathers but low autumn sun, lunatic cage drivers and wet roads are no fun.

Busy? Don't talk to me about busy. Took me almost 10 minutes to travel 11km this morning and at one set of lights there was at least a dozen cars spreed over 3 lanes.
OK, OK, you have other considerations.
