Just in case...

…anybody actually looks at this, I’m not here at the moment. Or at least, not cycling. I came off my bike whilst swerving to avoid a car on May 6th, and broke my hip and damaged my elbow. So, I’m off work for 6 weeks, and certainly off the bike. I’ll be back though, eventually.

Commute

Been a while since I’ve had anything to add here, so I’ll just update. Had the bike serviced at Cycle Surgery last night - new brake pads, new spoke yada yada. Rides a bit more smoothly though. Commuting time remained the same though, no marked improvement: proves that it’s the traffic in London, not the bike that’s the main factor in speed and time.

Where shall I read now?
