this years weather ?

[red98]

So......what can we expect weather wise this year ?.......took the last week of july and the first of august last year as holiday hoping to get upto scotland on the bike.....ended up with 3/4 days out bimbling around the south coast, weather was showery the whole 2 weeks , if its bad down south it was only going to be worse north of the border.....

any weather experts on here or have you seen any forcasts ?

 There's only 3 types of weather in Scotland- raining, been raining and about to rain! 
I don't know about summer but from previous years when the east coast of the US
gets it bad i.e. now, we can expect snow in the British Isles once it crosses the Atlantic.

They don't have seasons in Scotland - the rain just gets warmer

You can get lucky. I took my gen 1 round Scotland a couple of times. Both times the weather down here was awful, got to Scotland and it was sunny and dry. As I'm normally an unlucky bugger and have a reputation for making it rain every time I get the bike out, maybe I should have bought a lottery ticket both times.

Mind you, my exhaust fell off in Keswick so not that lucky.

Well red ive consulted the seaweed and looked to see if the coos (thats Scotish cows) are standing or laying down and decided we are going to have perfect biking weather from now untill November .

Only the shaggy ones with the long horns can give you a proper forecast. Thing is, they don't know the meaning of cold cos they're well hairy and probably drink Irn Bru.

I reckon it is a 10 year cycle and we've already had 5 years of shit......so that only leaves another 5 years red......by which time you & your bike will be..........antique


Looking forward to 2020-2030
