mmmmmmmmmm. Bright sunshine and a pesky cat combined to get me out of bed at a little after 5. I washed the Babe's bike in the back garden, we had breakfast, and we were on the road just a little earlier than usual at 6.45. What a difference a quarter of an hour makes. Empty roads. Even Blackfriars Bridge was clear, and it was such a joy to look up the Thames, without having traffic in your ears. Had a spat with a Merc in Smithfield, but only for fun (although the chaps braces were set to burst).
A leisurely ride back, dropping in on friends, and Brixton Cycles. Discovered a new road in Brixton Hill. It's all good.
