Tales from today's commute....

Back on the bike after a week's break. Yesterday much nicer than this morning's showers, although they faded away and left me overdressed. Shocked how much the vegetation has grown in just a few days not riding. Glad to be cycling again.

Car today, last night I had really bad sniffles I think was caused by dust and pollen from where the farmer was doing something in the field yesterday as I was sneezing and dribbling constantly all evening and woke up this morning although a lot better I still felt bleurgh.

Got wetted on the way home.

I was so very lucky.
A massive squall 10 minutes before I left work cleared just before I did actually leave.
Train approached Rochester in a massive cloudburst. Stopped by the time I left the station.
How lucky is that?
Bike got filthy though from the sheer amount of standing water.

What a difference 13 hours makes. Glorious this morning.

One numpty driver. Near work I was catching up four other cyclists, so I was in primary. Driver overtakes me then decides he wants to turn left and slows down, but can't turn as there are four cyclists in the cycle lane. I have to brake, mumble, and pull out into the opposite lane and overtake. As I'm passing he gives me the one finder salute. I told him to 'go forth'. Just why ?

Got wetted on the way home.

Also got wetted. Timed it badly, started raining just as I left, stopped as I got home. Sunny this morning, but forecast wet again later. Enjoyed the sun while it was there.
