What a wonderful, wet and windy, winding way to Winslow....wet weather christening this morning.
I see a few hardened cycle commuters every morning and I knew that when they saw me recently, they were thinking - 'ha! sunny day new boy on the route!'.....no longer! SOAKED TO THE SKIN! haha.
There is something quite exhilarating about battling the elements. And something quite terrifying at how close drivers seem to be in the morning race to the office! Not all drivers of course.
Hopefully the bike will stay in better health this week. I had to have the rear wheel trued, as it all felt too wobbly last week. The trouble with doing an old bike up, is gauging at which point you stop spending on it and decide whether you need to buy a new one! Hopefully, I have now spent as much as need be to keep it on the commuting run.
