Tales from today's commute....

[fossyant]

Was a bit foggy when I set off, glad I put an extra bright light front and rear, 3 on each end now

Winter jacket was used but was roasting by the time I got to work

Only 3. Heh heh !

Almost got left hooked this morning. Luckily I was turning left also otherwise it would have been emergency stopping time.

Only for the offender to stop 100 yards down the road at a shop

I stopped. The guy got out of his car. Interestingly with a raised voice he started saying something rather incoherently. He'd clearly gone into defence mode, then realised I wasn't having a go at him actually apologised.

Jolly dee.

Long trousers and a jacket then? I'm on a rest day tomorrow, I might put the spikey tyres on the clunker bike just in case it gets slippery getting to work over the weekend.

Day 3 of taking the train: My cover was almost blown but I managed to blend back in.

Bikes ordered for a test ride later in the week

Picked the wrong day to take shirt supply into the office (have never managed to bring shirts in on the bike without creasing them) - it was a beautiful sunny day here in Cardiff and I was really looking forward to riding, but then remembered that there was a car outside the office not a bike
