It hardly seems fair that everywhere I ride, it's up a 20% slope and into a Beaufort Force 8 headwind. Everywhere I go, even if I'm just retracing my route out.
I broke 2 spokes on my commute to work yesterday! 2!!!! Fortunately I work in a bike shop :biggrin: and I was able to fix it before I clocked in. Not commuting anywhere today though my raving-lunatic best friend and I might go out for a ride in the drizzle/light rain/torrential downpour ("variable rain," per Channel 5). Hell, I might go out anyway. I've gotten soft on myself lately.
