Commuter diaries - bikes in B & Q - aaaagggggghhhhhhh!

Now, I am a fan of all things bicycle but I have to say seeing bikes for sale in B & Q with barbecues, tents, lawn mowers and marigolds is a little scary!

Long live the IBD.

Commuter diaries - another training ride

 This time on my road bike in the early evening sun.......lovely.

40 miler including a couple of good hills. Winsley Hill between Bath and Bradford on Avon, is short but seems much steeper than the 12% sign at the top.

In the heat I was certainly glad of my 10th gear.

Commuter diaries - Cycle Karma

Every morning I pass a senior cyclist on the Bath to Bristol cycle path (you will know the rider I mean if you are a regular on the path...... The lovely old guy on an ancient tourer with massive glasses) and we always greet each. He is a constant on the Path. almost a permanent feature of my ride. Well this morning he was there again, but this time he was assisting a young lad who had a puncture and no kit.......... Now that's cycling karma..... I hope in years from now when I am riding I can stop to assist young riders. Respect. See you tomorrow old guy.

Snow Commute, North Oxford

Found this video of an Oxford cyclist's intrepid commute last week.

Film is a bit speeded up, but nevertheless he/she appears to be flying - couple of nasty wobbles, but doesn't deter them from giving the camera a wipe every now and again. 

Commute is along the Banbury Road, finishing on St Giles with St John's College to the left and the Ashmolean Museum to the right.

Commuter diaries - lovely weather

I was riding with a friend on Sunday who had a completely waterproof holder for wallets and valuables and believe me it was needed.

Check it out, these were designed for water sports.
