Rode home as well today, after doing some cycling around the city (still get shakey when im being overtaken by an artic!! ), had to run errands.

On the way back I took it fairly easy, sauntered around, popped into tescos to get some food and buy a nice water bottle mounting thing, and then enjoyed the journey home along the river.

Climbing the hill back into my place was hard... I was tired, but I was faster than I normally go With the weather as well I could just get my head down and just concentrate on the riding, get a rhythm... work it... and enjoy the air.

Still got nailed by a guy on a trek hybrid of some kind... blew by me on the uphill section but you could see from the shorts he was wearing, he had calves of iron.

Oh... and forgot to mention... had a tiny wee race with some club riders this morning along the trail had a few mornings and what not from them, decided to over take them as I was nailing it hard on the way in, heard "thats how your playing it is it!!" and got blown by the bunch of em on road bikes lol I reckon I did quite well to hold on as long as I did on my little cheap halfords hybrid lol. But it just added extra fun to the trip really nice day.
