Tales from today's commute....

[HLaB]

A bit fresher and windier than I was expecting, it was supposed to be +16 degC and a SSW wind (a taily) it felt like a headwind all the way. I think I need to give up on this headset and get a new one, there's just too much play. Ive tried fettling it a bit but no success. It was like this a year ago and I gave up and took it to a bike shop. There was one cheeky pull out from a taxi driver on a narrow road to a roundabout that I go under and drivers usually get stuck at blocking the cycle path. But it was so quiet today that he got straight out and I only had to sit up.

Just a hard stare this time. He didn't close pass to be fair, which if he had it would have meant an added hand signal. 👍

Dont forget your marmalde sandwiches helps with a hard stare apprently.

Gusty swirly winds, not sure which way they're coming from. Warm. Not actually damp, but feels like it might be soon. Legs really feeling this first week back after only a short break. But still smiling to sail past the queues of stuck drivers.

Traffic was pretty bad in places on the way home, such a smug feeling snicking past them, especially having driven one day this week.
