Paimio's Revenge V

Toni Lund and Jani@pyöristi arranged a larger group ride in Paimio this year as well. The night temperature was below freezing, creating occasional patches of ice here and there. Just in time for the ride it started to rain. The temperature was now a little above freezing, which meant fairly cold riding conditions. We rode for almost five hours and at the end everybody was thoroughly soaked and cold. I did not have time to eat or choose appropriate gear, since I found out that I was able to participate just in time to get there and not be much too late. The last 30 minutes were pure misery, since I ran of of energy in the middle of the ride and had nothing to eat. Preparation is the key to everything...

A few pictures follow. I used my old camera, which leaves a lot to be desired in image quality. It seems to cope with rain quite well, though.

Late fall.
