Stumbled upon Cycle Chat via a Google search for bike maintainence. Brilliant forum with really good tips for all ranges of experience. Fairly new to cycling, commuting about 10 miles each way on one of the worlds most scenic cycle routes....right along London Rd through Glasgow's east end!!!! I'm a cop at the Air support unit in Glasgow so travelling at all times of day and night and trying to manage it in all weathers and already picked up some great tips for winter cycling. Keep up the good work everyone.
Great Forum

That looks SO much better. Can we have a special batch of jerseys made up with that logo next time ? 
Welcome along, Niall. Once you become addicted (which takes all of a few days), you'll never want to commute any other way, regardless of the weather (except for ice, of course). Being Glasgow-based, I'd encourage you to join in the CycleChat Team Scotland ride on Pedal For Scotland 2009....

Aye, there could be a fair few on that one! I'm looking forward to it already.
Of course there will be a few more rides before then....

.. just think how much nicer it will be when summer gets here. Do you have a summer all the way up there?

Welcome Niall. Ignore Magnatom, he's a cycling zealot with a fetish for recording people and shaking his head whilst making a tutting sound
In fact, don't take any notice of the nonsense in Commuting. We all talk shocking b0llocks.

Of course we do - what do you think turns our skin from blue to white ?

Of course we do, it was on a Tuesday this year if I remember correctly.
