It wasn't meant to be

So... we were due to meet tonight for another evening ride. However, a combination of incidents conspired against us. Rich had to work late, and wouldn't be getting back to Dorking until late. Mark was still up for it.... but discovered he'd locked his bike in the car and lost the key... meaning he'd now have to drive home to get the spare... and the M25 was looking it's usual self for a Thursday evening. The weather was glorious all day.... until about 17:00... when the rain came. So everything transpired against us, and we felt that for tonight it just wasn't meant to be.
