2 weeks of lovely dry weather, last night out in Cambridge for a curry with the lads from work.
9 pm, I am off and cycle home, and it starts raining....
Half way, 9 miles left, bloody puncture, so a roll to a stop where there is tarmac and make a start.
Next thing, lady in a Ford Focus pulls up and offers to put the bike in the car and take me all the way home ! Not only that she had seen me from the opposite side of the carriageway and had gone to the roundabout and turned round !
I was deeply touched by the generosity, but I declined her offer kindly as i was almost finished, but I think if I had not had the thing done I think I would have taken the generous offer.
Then when she left, a guy was out cycling for the evening, and pulled up to make sure I was okay, we had a little chat and then he went his way.
So if both these people ever read this, then thanks to you both, you have shown me that there is still kindness in this world and its not just full of bad people.
