Weather often horrid though. Cuckmere Haven is one of my favourite places in the world too so always a pleasure to run there.

Just been for a ride along the seafront and is glorious today. Weather for tomorrow looks ideal. One thing i felt today is how cold it is so have dug out the tights, hat and gloves.
