Tales from today's commute....

Phew! It's going to be a hot one today here in the SE. 32° predicted, peaking tomorrow. Times like these, the best thing to do is take it easy on the ride. Yeah right 😁

Already very warm this morning, definitely tempo riding, I didn't even try to stick with the roadie whom I might have been able to draft in with. Last week, also fine riding with no incidents.

A rare repeat customer for Avon and Somerset police this morning. Usually the first contact has a positive effect, but this driver who I'd reported in March this year for similar bad driving in the same location, overtook the driver behind me as I was approaching a bend, before meting out a fast close pass on me and forcing an incomer to brake sharply to avoid a collision.

There's a wheelchair sticker on the back of the van asking for space.. 🤷🤦🚴

I expect prosecution this time although we rarely get told of the outcome.

Back to commuting today but not giving it full gas yet as the knee is not perfect yet. Even at 4.15 am it was close to 20 c
