Tales from today's commute....

Ride home tonight was a tad harder than the run into work this morning.

This.

Uh oh! X just took your KOM on Y by 1 second.

You are kidding me

Given a run for my money by a smartly dressed lady, chinos, tan leather jacket, Sophia Loren sunglasses, for a few miles this evening on the Edgware Rd. Giveaway that she meant business were the mitts and singlespeed flatbar. Made for an enjoyable interlude.

Bloody wind again

Missing out on the commute again. Due to damaged ribs. Was in agony after forum ride so its a week to 10 days off the bike to recover!

Bloody wind again

Can't agree more. Legs were going made I was going nowhere. And being a lump I have more wind resistance (I keep telling myself that) some lad flew past me on a nice giant hybrid with carbon forks, couldn't see the model and he didn't want to talk to me
Then I nearly got side swiped by a lunatic on a bright yellow roadie absolutely flying along through a red light.

Unless I was heading due North it felt like I had a head wind today. Still at least it is a warm wind and beats sitting in the car.

Another nice warm ride this morning, a little drizzle and a gusty wind could not overshadow not having to ride in sub-zero temperatures.

What happened Vike?

Still in shorts today, wow, that was windy again. Cloudy this morning, which meant far fewer cyclists out than yesterday.
The wife got on very well yesterday, about 6 miles round trip, she even took a different route home, and she still went to the gym last night! She's having a rest day today and hoping to be back on the cycle commute tomorrow!

Bloody wind again

That was hard work - particularly between Longstanton and Westwick.

Nice headwind, I say nice because my average speed and time would have been a record run 2 years ago assisted with a tailwind, so defintely shows progress. Not enjoyable in the true sense but not the drudgery and outright leg pain it would have been 18 months ago.

Car commute this morning... which in some ways was good as it got me some twilight driving practice, my other half wasn't to appreciative of a commented drive because we didn't talk, but did understand why I did it. As usual found some interesting observational comments (eg. "What? How the hell did you see that!?").

What happened Vike?

Day Job is a contact sport.. sometimes you get hurt. Cracked ribs!
