It was awesome! I fitted fenders the other day. I felt stoopid doing it, I'm pleased I did it now! When I set out it had just finished raining and the roads were wet, the second half of the journey on the MUPpet path was still coated in mud from when it flooded a while back.

I had mud all over the wheels and fenders. It was so thick in places it was slick, i had to slow down a bit!

This afternoon had warmed up to the mid 60's so I got to ditch my jacket and arm warmers and was able to show off my new jersey I picked up at a swap meet this weekend.



I had one guy on the way home who was really pleased to see me. He kept honking and honking. Thing was he wasn't even behind me! He was in the other lane. I don't think his driving skills were that great either as he jerked into my lane while continuing to honk. I waved and smiled and took a note of his plate. I fill in the online complaint forms for the cops.
