Where did you get it? I would take it back and say it wasn't of sufficient quality and durability, failing prematurely like that

I think you might have. It pays to keep your rims clean
.So what are these expensive wheels you mentioned you had to take down off the wall and finally use?

Where did all the cars come from? A mile long road was nose to tail on the way in, with no discernible reason when I got to the other end. Commute home I got caught up in the traffic following the A56/A57M junction police incident. Lots of experience filtering today.

Despite SWMBO's concerns, this morning was my first commute after breaking my hip in May. Man, it felt gooooooooooooooood!
Sod the tube, there's nothing like cycling to work.

4 dangerously close passes this morning compared to just a couple in the last Two Months!
No idea why, I checked everything when I got to work, thought maybe I'd forgotten the high-viz rucksack cover or a light had fallen off or something.
Only thing different was Blue padded undershorts instead of Red or White. They'll be going in the bin as soon as I get home!

The ring road path was almost deserted this morning, perhaps all the cyclists had taken to their cars instead as the ring road was a large car park!

It was a lot warmer this morning than it was yesterday. I really should remember to step outside before setting off. Our overheated changing room was even worse than ususal!

Just before heading out the door I switched bikes to the Airlite as it looked a bit grim. Yep, sure enough within 2 minutes of leaving the rain started, then 5 minutes later it had gone! Didn't have to put much effort in as I was gliding on the South Easterly most of the way, but I know what that means for the PM trip.
Is this now the common state, permanently damp roads until about March?
