Naas to Lowtown

Tomorrow morning we are going to drive to Naas and then cycle to Lowtown, back to Naas by road on the bikes and then drive home. Weather forecast is brutal as far as I know, but we're not made of sugar. My bike on the other hand might as well be. Going on road tyres cos I'm not arsed changing to knobblys. Hope the downpours of the last few days don't leave me regretting that. Otherwise the bike is in its usual state of being near to death, covered in rotted grease and muck and generally a merged heap of rust and steelish stuff. I am a bike slob, but it has served me well so far. The day will come shortly when it will not. Kinda hoping for bike disintegration close to home so I have the excuse to buy a new MTB. Got a nice road bike a couple of years ago, so hard to justify getting rid of 'the gate'.
