The rain did not stop play, or rather, ride
No - me and Josie were unstoppable
I took my bike on the train; stood outside
The toilet; off at Wilmslow; miserable
Grey sky and a persistent light rainfall
Did not change my mind; not even a coat
Or sweater; just a T-shirt: that was all
I had to keep my top half warm; I hoped
The forecast was right: the clouds were about
To head east. They didn’t, but we still tried
To explore those leafy lanes to the full
And after that, cycle to town without
Needing a parking space. A source of pride
For both of us that the day went so well
