Tales from today's commute....

A nice fast commute this morning, aided by that wind. It'll be a nightmare going home. So fast I thought I'd get the early train only to find it cancelled, and my usual roll on platform had to be changed to one involving stairs! I get on and tie up the bike only for them to announce another platform change. Thinking it was the later train there a guard confirmed it was the other platform. As we were standing there yet another platform alteration was announced, back to the one I'd originally tied up the bike on 🤦‍♂️

Absolutely flying this morning, tailwind, Friday halfterm.

2mph faster average speed, 3 whole minutes faster than earlier in the week, 5 cf the cold busy week before. Such fun.

Yep the same for me. On the big boys bike too today. Rolled in at a great rate of knots. No one else on the train and very little traffic.
I was very lucky that on arriving into Bromley the heavens opened. But by the time I got off the train, up the stars and on my way the rain had stopped. Disconcertingly mild this morning too.

I remember Bromley, I got the train there for a couple of years living in our maisonette in Southland Court enroute to Victoria. It's probably a grotty place now though. :eek: Wasn't so bad then. :rolleyes:
