Let the wind blow. After a day of gale warnings 60+mph I was psyched up to give it my best this morning and apart from one huge gust of wind that virtually stopped the bike is was pretty easy and I got to work feeling very happy, but of course there's always the homeward journey.

It was very hard work all the way home, but there's something about pitting yourself against the weather that is so satisfying that despite the time it took to get home I just couldn't help smiling to myself.
