Friday morning's commute was a bit manic. Woke up to a flat tire got that fixed in no time. Realised I'd left my trousers in flat and doubled back to get them. Got circa 2 and 1/2 miles down the road and bang. Walked to a lbs to get some tubes (Id used my last one). They didn't open till 9am but fortunately they saw me and opened up 3-5mins early. Fixed it in their shop and got going, before going I asked if I could borrow a track pump but they topped the tire up with a cool air pump 
Came down the marked cycle lane and a copper stopped me, 'you know cycling up ahead isn't allowed' I wanted to say yes I can see the signs 200m ahead theyve been there for over a year but bit my tongue and yes but I'm turning right onto the road its not worth the hassle going through the ped precinct, even on a Sunday. He politely agreed. I'm pretty sure that he be better off on a beat and perhaps deterring or catching a real criminal. Tbh he probably feels that way too.
So instead of being 15-20mins early I was 20-25mins late, at least its flexi time
