I was driving home from work tonight wishing that I could cycle instead of drive…
Unfortunately I cannot but my mind drifted back to my childhood and the Government safety campaigns of the 80s. Thankfully Google and YouTube remember everything – even things which weren’t around prior to their conception.
Another wet and windy weekend and again both bikes stayed in the house, warm and dry.
It’s quite frustrating but I’m sure I’ll be out soon. I need to go to the bottle bank on the Dahon and I also want to get out for a ‘burn’ on the Trek – we’ll see if I can get out during the nights this week…
Wow, today the weather has been crazy. I didn’t venture out on the Dahon and I’m glad that I chose to walk. Some cyclists were out, but they soon dismounted and began to push…
Parts of the UK have been hit by winds up to 100mph and here in Kent the weather has been, and still is, pretty rough.
I walked into town today for a coffee and to drop off a suit for dry cleaning. I could barely keep to my feet as the wind buffeted me as I walked. On the walk home the heavens opened and unleashed a huge amount of rain. I was soaked but it was nice to be out in the elements. I like this time of year and the British weather was at its best (or worst) today.
I had another (nice) day off work yesterday and headed into London. It wasn’t a warm day but it was nice for November and at least it wasn’t raining.
Decided to visit the London Eye for the first time and the weather was good enough to give us a nice view of the city. We were lucky as later in the afternoon the rain started and reminded us it was Autumn and England.
On a Saturday morning, the bike is far superior to the car.
Needing to wash some clothes, I realised I was out of the required ‘fluids’ so needed to head to the shops. The sun is out today so I had no hesitation in breaking out the Dahon.
The roads around Rochester Bridge always get gridlocked at busy periods due to poor traffic planning around Strood so I figured that if I took the car, by the time I got to the shop and found a parking space I’d have finished the shopping if I’d travelled by bike.
I was right, it was gridlocked. No problem for the Dahon though and the convenient cycle lanes!
No cycling again this weekend as I headed back to Pembrokeshire to see my family. A great weekend away and very relaxing – it’s far nicer there than here in the South East of England!
Didn’t take either of the bikes so I hope to get out on them during the nights this week.
