Hi all, started a new contract recently in Leeds city centre. Got digs in Morley so doing the 5.85 each way daily. Found the house on spare rooms dot com, which didn't mention the hill...
Also didn't mention the pot holes - thousands of them! swapping from my hybrid (Cannondale Quick) to the MTB (Cannondale Scalpel) this week to give my body a break. Not confident the nobblies are ideal commuter tyres though.
I've done a fair bit of central London commuting, and Leeds is definitely more chilled - only a couple of hairy bits - crossing lanes on 40mph dual carriageways. Also, the traffic lights in the city centre take ages to change - really noticed that.
Any other Leeds commuters out there?
