Mon 18:08:2008 20:27 Absolutely soaked. All day. The forecast of "heavy showers" was spot on, if heavy showers last for 5 hours at a time!Yesterday was wet but today's rain was proper grim.Last night's special stage was good fun: 3k up and 4.5k back down. In the dark with rain.Today's special stage was flatter, and edited due to the weather. It might've been on a green grade trail but after 65k uphill in the rain, it bloody hurt.Hey-hoo... No special stage tomorrow, only a sociable 75k to Tregaron then food and sleep.Checked the weather tonight: BBC says rain/heavy showers until Friday but MetCheck says clear by Wednesday.Metcheck, don't let me down...
