If you think you had bad weather on sunday, I bet you didn’t get as wet as Huw and I!
I was Huw’s guest as part of a 4 man team at a water aid cycling event in north Wales. It started in the middle of Anglesea and took us on a 100 mile course around Snowdon via Llandudno in the east, Bala in the south, Porthmadoc in the west and back to Anglesea via Caernafon.
The route and the scenery was stunning. But the weather was horrendous. I don’t think I have ever cycled in such heavy rain and wind. When Huw told me we were cycling for Water Aid, I thought it was to raise money, not to physically collect the water! The wind held us up a bit – we were like a pair of wind socks going across the Menai Bridge .
Despite all that I had a great time climbing those hills, and a fantastic weekend. Thanks to Huw for asking me on to his works team.
