    Rule #5 // Harden The Feck Up.
    Rule #9 // If you are out riding in bad weather, it means you are a badass. Period.
    Rule #12 // The correct number of bikes to own is n+1.
    Rule #42 // A bike race shall never be preceded with a swim and/or followed by a run.

    I am determined to get out on the bike tommrrow, the only thing that will hold me back is high wind.

    After a weekend away with what can only be described as stodgy food I really need to get out on the bike for an hour of so to get the system moving again.

    I sometimes find myself laughing on my commute during heavy downpours. Not sure what it is about getting pi$$ed on that tickles me, maybe i'm sort sort of sadist.

    Ice on the cars in Dyce this morning.

    It is now officially winter :evil:
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    Phew! I'm not alone. Did that yesterday morning, although it wasn't heavy rain :D

    A touch of ice in the Balham air this morning. Was out in baselayer and tights, most other cyclists in two layers or more. Am I odd? I get too hot if I wear more than that currently.

    Great ride this morning.

    Brisk, but lovely and sunny, just what you want to get the day going.
    I'm sure this is the proper start of the change in the Weather now though.

    I arrived at work at my usual time and there was nothing like the amount of bikes that there usually are!

    It was lovely this morning, wasn't it. Chilly enough to make me think that it is time to put the fingerless gloves into hibernation though.
