Another great ride this morning. I hammered pretty hard on last nights Fred Ride...set some Strava PRs. I told myself that I absolutely had to ride into work today. Just a nice easy recovery spin. Meeting The Better Half after work for Handlebar Happy Hour (I'm so glad she has started to go with me...maybe one of these days I'll even get her on a bike in the city!) so I had to take a bike that will fit in her car. The Peugeot definitely will not, at least not without taking the wheels off. So...the carbon bike it was! Put my Carradice on and had a wonderful ride. Traffic was a bit heavy, but I just rode on past it all. Until I got into the city. My usual road I take to get to the office was closed, so I had to go up another street, which is all uphill and one of the main thoroughfares into the city. That's never fun.

Oh! I actually saw another person on my route using the bike lane!! Every now and again I see a roadie going the opposite direction, but this was a guy going somewhere in the same direction.
