Tales from today's commute....

[HLaB]

A surprisingly fast commute straight into a head wind and I only got stopped properly at 2 red lights (I rolled slowly to a couple to let them change to green before I got to them). I think the first glimpses of daylight made it faster and a few patient drivers and my desire to keep them as so 🙂

Karma for all the annoying driving I'd experienced recently. Last night I got cut up really badly (no contact stayed upright). A main cut through peels diagonally off the main road I was on. It's a terrible junction inviting drivers to take it at speed with lots of cyclists going straight on along the green paint. I ride it wide and defensively, but even so someone looped around and chopped straight across my nose.

Only for the car behind them to be a copper who lit up and pulled them over while I rode off. Much improved my mood.
