    Dont ride to work in the week as central london aint fun and i get my travel paid for so silly f*cking bikes up when i can sit on the train for free....

    had to come in this morning so thought id ride in as it doesnt matter sitting here in T shirt jeans and a star boots! lol

    20 mins shorter journey time, nice quiet roads and a decent view from my desk!! lol

    ha ha... just had to take a double look! one is a dried up bit of leaf, the other is a rolled up peice of paper... mate, we slum it in my game. this is the poshest cabin i've had, got a private loo, instant hot water, a dishwasher, my own office, the lot.... it even has carpet!

    needless to say, we inherited it from a previous contractor, i'm too horrible to waste money on such luxuries for the site team.

    that would qualify as "affordable housing" with Devon County Council.

    Same here. Synchronised crap 175 miles apart. Got to meet Jeanette in town later after her hairdresser marathon, perhaps Si could explain why it takes longer to get a hairdo than to service the bike. Anyway, I'm thinking I might wear my RST waterproof jacket, so I can remember what it feels like to be a biker.

    was only damp this morning! and certainly not cold mel!! tut tut

    its funny when you have to ride its amazing how your perception of how much it actually rains changes... you might think its rained ALL week, but looking back you only got wet once or twice??, i found when i was riding everyday, despite it feeling like it was constantly raining you tend to dodge getting wet a lot!

    I'm with Jimbo on this, easy for me to say as I do have the other bike so the 10 doesn't get covered in shit all the time.
