Ravenbait, do you ever use the canal towpath? I passed a woman with a lot of red hair last night - I wondered if she could be you, but she was wearing a helmet and high vis, which I don't think is your usual practice.
No, wouldn't get me on the towpath! It's narrow and I might fall in!
I have been contemplating the towpath as a route to work if I ever get my running fitness up sufficiently to run, which I hope to at some point, but not for the bike.
For those looking out for the lesser spotted Ravenbait, I am currently riding Fingal, my black and silver Orbit Harrier, who sports Century tri bars, front and rear rack and generally a single black Ortlieb back roller classic on the offside. I have red hair, Rudy Project Sportsmask glasses (the Oakley Mag M-Frames have been retired)[sup]*[/sup], do not wear hi-viz and my head will be either unadorned or accessorised with a Buff or
Buff Evo 2.

* Of which I was very glad last night when waiting at red lights near Murrayfield, as a scrote of the 7 - 8 year old variety, with big brother in tow, set off a party popper in my face before scarpering, slightly burning my cheek. Little gobsh!te. I should have ripped his arm off.
