Got called a bawbag today. But how did they know? My cycling was impeccable.

Did you ask them to moo-ve?
He's definitely being bullish about it.
Waved at my bovine friends this morning but they were in a field on the other side of the road so I probably got the wrong field . Please no more cow puns.
A rider I bumped into at a recent sportive who lives a couple off villages away from me caught me up on my homewards trip . Nice catch up for a mile or so
I have a picture in my mind of a confused farmer turning up and finding his cows in a field across the road from where he last saw them behind a closed gate

If they were in his whey, he could have used his (cow) bell.
Came off the mtb on cs3...one of those ones where you know there is nothing you can do to save yourself,it was wet,it was slippy and in hindsight i should of been a bit slower,still completly unexpected given ive fairly knobbly tyres on.Bike landed on me and pretty much unscathed apart from pedal scrape and bar end scrape.Ive got a bit of road rash from elbow down along forearm but nothing major as it was soooo slippery.Trousers saved my buttock and thigh.Other than this,ive gotta say I'm loving this commuting.

Offed by a combination of a delivery van door (on the cycle PATH, not even cycle lane) and a grate (avoiding the van) that skipped my front wheel enough to catch my bars on the van door.
Driver refused to give details. Police interest rate is around zero.
Worst thing is that sitting down on a hard pub stool isn't an option...buggration. Think I strained my Gluteus Maximus. Which makes me want to watch episodes of Up Pompeii on YT. Not Life of Brian as I don't want to think about straining my Biggus....

Well that was a thoroughly vile commute in to work this morning, for all the reasons @Ciar has said above. I don't mind the rain, I don't mind the cold, and I can even handle strong winds. But when they all come together and hit you as one. It's a Godamn bind.
Oh well.. it's looking like it's going to blow over by the time I leave for home.

On the upside, with that much rain nobody would be able to tell you were crying.
Plus nice tailwind home
