Slightly belatedly, I've had a couple of interesting commuting days: pretty foggy in the morning followed by cool but very pleasant spring-like afternoons.
Yesterday was nice enough that I thought I'd take the scenic route home (my colleagues say; don't you take the scenic route already?
) and headed through Wroxeter to Cressage and home via Acton Burnell, Condover and over Lyth Hill. 10 miles on the way out and 18 on the way home
This morning the visibility was worse still. I did a good deed by directing a van driver who'd missed his junction in the fog, then shortly after had to take a detour due to an unexpected road closure. The detour meant I passed my boss picking up milk for the tea
, it also meant I had to use a road I'm not that keen on due to it being a bit of a rat run
(and today was no exception).
The return trip was very pleasant in the sunshine and light winds. Loads of traffic on the A49 though so I lost a few minutes waiting for my turn to go.
Another 20 miles to add to the tally.
Glad I'm mostly on quiet roads in the fog.
Still a bit misty in the evening but it was a nice light.
