Got up a wee bit later this morning, so no real need for lights, but it was cold so I was well wrapped up.
I have enjoyed my last couple of commutes home, as it has been dark but dry. I love cycling in near silence, my own small world being defined by the reach of my lights, and as I glance down I can see a red flash from one of my two rear lights.
Rattling through the fallen leaves is the only dodgy bit as they are a bit slippy, but if this weather holds, this week will be OK.
