Colder UK weather = wetsuit cycling!

It may have turned to turn much colder in the UK, the last number of days. Which means I can’t really go out cycling in my sexy Lycra shorts now! But at least it gives me a great reason to get out wearing a wetsuit much more! So today I went out cycling wearing the blueseventy axium wetsuit.

24 hours later at North Witham…

You would not think it’s the same place, in North Witham. I was at less than 24 hours ago. The River Witham has gone back down to a more of a normal level. Just to think yesterday it was up to 1.5 metres on that sign. This time, I could even cycle over the footbridge, like I normally do.

Flooding at North Witham

Here are some photos I took of the flooding at North Witham, Lincolnshire. During today’s mini 26.26 mile cycle. Just to think, I normally cycle down that road and over the footbridge next to the ford.  The footbridge, was just about fully under the water!

Check out en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Witham to see what the ford normally looks like.

Remember I love reading your comments about my photos. So please post some!!

Photo also used by East Coast Trains on Facebook!

Tallington ECML (East Coast trains)The list of people that have used my photos, just keeps on growing…

East Coast Trains have also used the photo on there facebook page. Which can be found at www.facebook.com/eastcoastuk.

Best they are very glad I took the photo. It shows everyone just now bad it was. And why Network Rail had to close the ECML between Peterborough and Grantham for most of yesterday afternoon and well into the evening.

I believe even some 24 hours later. Only 3 of the 4 lines are fully open. The one remaining line (the fast line towards London) is open but only for use by diesel trains.

I do feel very sorry for East Coast Trains, this happens way to often on the ECML. Network Rail, do really need to sort it out!
