Today was my first commute, this means I needed to be organised, no mean feat for me - have you seen my house/hair/handbag?
Despite the above I was ready to roll at 8am, thought id leave nice and early because a) - not sure how long it would take b) - didn't want to bump into too many colleagues in the office dressed in not a lot of that lycra stuff sweating like a madwoman. So, off I zoomed on my new love, rucksack not too heavy, I totally bossed the downhill stretch of Bromham Road and grinning like a woman on some kind of mad juice diet or something.
Wow, its mad out there, cars and transits battling each other for space with cyclists hanging on in there. I stayed on the main roads today, although I will look at a friendlier route tomorrow. It does seem quite dangerous and you certainly need to have your wits about you.
Im liking it so far, a faint 'glow' by the time I got to work, soon remedied with babywipes and a roll on. Not sure it will be so favourable in the rain though.
In other news im back on solids after a week long juice diet, in a nutshell* a fair amount of weight lost and feeling pretty good.
Right, im off back out for a cycle
*this environment is not nut free
