Tales from today's commute....

Tough going on the way in but lovely on the way home. I am also loving my headphones, I've got audio book for way in and Spotify for the journey home.

Really tough ride home last night. Wind has been relentless this week. Blog post here:

Midweek Slump

So glad of this half way home:

Tell me you don`t commute on the A71 ?? I`ve done a couple of trips from out your way in years gone by and that road is a mare !!

Only use the 71 rarely, it's not a nice ride! Usually take A89 -> A8 into Edinburgh. Check it out on my blog or strava if you want.

Foggy on the old commute this morning, but not cold.
Last day of the half term holidays which means the roads will be back to packed school run normal next week.

We may have passed in the mornings at some point !

Well, what a lovely warm commute home this afternoon.
I did away with the leg warmers and windcheater and rolled the base layer arm sleeves up.
Amazing weather for February.

Weird week for drivers. Had another close pass, a lollipop man with no kids step out in front of me after chatting with his colleague, and a convertible driver drive the other side of the road to pass me, to enter the lane to the left of me to sit at the lights...only to be on the wrong lane to go right.

Well the jokes on him. He owns a convertible in Scotland!

I decided on this mornings commute I'm a reckless cyclist, I keep on saying hello to folks. One of these days I'm going to make somebody crash as they desperately look away to avoid eye contact

Perfect weather for an extended, slow on & off road ride in to work on the 29er. Warm, dry, sunny & light winds so I didn't exactly take the most direct route in...

Coming home this evening, there was thick mist which made the unlit off road sections "ineresting".

Quite likely, I go up the Maybury Road every day. You record on Strava?
