Tough ride in today with the wind against me. Wind was stronger this afternoon but once it was behind me, made for a fast ride home.
On the negative side, boss can't give me a couple of extra hours a week so I can do the cycle to work scheme. At the mo, after the increase in the lower tax threshold, I only pay tax on a very small amount of my income. Thus I cannot do the C2W scheme as you only save on your bike through your tax payments.

I might have a new commute route coming up. I am due for a job interview tomorrow so if I get it I will be commuting.
I will taking the opportunity to divert my ride home up a short 1km climb which will have a nice tailwind helping me float up the hill( in theory).Cheer us all up, why don't you.

Wow fastest ever, and its only April I wasn't breaking records until July last year. Motons do not know what they are missing with a lovely tailwind warm weather and bit of sunshine! SS and Shorts lovely jubbly. Might press the button on the SL4 S-Works frame lol
Added another 4 miles to my ride in this morning as nice and warm! 
loco: two of my friends were racing a short sprint section on strava at the same time, the guy that physically came 2nd shows up as winner and got the kom but the guy who actually came first was about 3 seconds faster...go figure?? Both had Garmin 500's
Still love Strava though :/

windy windy and I'm not talking about my addiction to raisins 
Wow that wind!!!! That was awful, however I'm pleased to say that I smashed a KOM strava segment which may have been helped by the tornado like winds that left me in the middle of the road half the time.
One silly woman on my journey. My lights green. Her in my way in a pretty yellow crossed box! Scared her weaving through and scowling at her lol
