I came in on the wet/winter bike so obviously it stayed dry for us this morning.
Got an odd beep at a set of traffic lights, then two fingers shown at us in the mirror. Nice guy.

Light rain all the way in today, bike started making horrible noises again, so might pop it into the bike shop at dinner time - 5 mile there, quick walk home for the spare bike, 5 mile back to work, should see my ticker, tick over 8,000 miles for the year. This time last year I was doing 50 - 60 miles a week crawling to and from work, do that in a day now.

Last night was my second deliciously dry and cool night time commute with a tail wind home on both nights pushing my typical (not average) speeds up to 22-23mph

Passed two fair-weather cyclists on the way in who both rode so far over on their right of the shared path they were almost in the hedge

I got called to the tills at about 2pm to queue bust. I was sat at my till waiting for my customer to enter their pin looking out of the big plate glass windows thinking it was going to be a horrible ride home. But when I finished at 3 it had all gone away.

Normally I would be moaning like hell all week because of the wind, it has been windy but because I have dodged all the rain, all week, I am not going to moan!! Now there's a first !
I tried to catch two cyclists ahead of me, pretty sure it was @MisterStan and @martinclive, but on the big sweeping bend of the busway I ran out of energy, I had not eaten all afternoon, so trundled to a stop at Longstanton, exhausted, and had to resort to the emergency snickers in the ruck sack. Cycled home at 15 mph for the last half of the journey, just glad to get back.
