morning

bike 180 - ride 16

cold one today - seemed to have taken the gritters by surprise as the road hadn't been treated. a couple of interesting wobbles. but i still much prefer the cold to the wet and windy we have had (and will have over next few days)
rode with another commuter for a short distance this morning - he had nicely built on-one inbred and was moving pretty fast. i expect there are not many car commuters who exchanged pleasantries and commuting tales with their fellow commuters

the best thing about this morning though was the light - ok, so there was very little cloud cover but still the best sign so far that the solstice is well behind us and snowdrops and springtime are just around the corner
