Mid-commute photos

In classic 'show me yours and I'll show you mine' style, what does your commute look like?

Here's mine, slap bang in the middle of the journey.

Could be worse

Here's a few from a bit more than half way on my route through London.

I know, I editted it so you freaks can't ambush me!

Some random images of my commute in Berkshire:

The only commute pic I have is this one from last year when I reached 10k miles for the year. Ilkley Moor in the background.

Ah, the badly-worn tape on the handle bars is "Ilkley Moor Bar Tat". I'll get my coat.

Bushy Park which is about the middle, in time any way.

can get a bit busy with dog walkers and so on, But since the other choice is stop start though Hampton Hill, and I love the open spaces which i need as I'm a country boy so need to pretend I'm not in the city!

Here's one of Musselburgh Harbour, just over half-way into my commute:

Following the picture link to flikr gives:

"This photo was taken on April 10, 2011 using a Canon EOS 7D. "

Clapham Common is pretty much half way - I'll get a picture of the sunset tonight if I remember.

Wish I had a camera last night, I followed a young lady for a short distance who was the perfect advert for cycling as a means of giving you a great pert bottom.*

*she may have been blessed with it before taking up cycing, but if the CTC / whovere were ever to run such a campaign, she'd be the perfect face / bottom for it.

If you couldn't tell the two apart then she's probably not that great

She's probably only in it for the craic.

As promised, Clapham Common in the evening.

Digital SLR, Canon, stupidly expensive camera to carry round on my back in London traffic really!

Same here, if I put my normal lens on it's 2k's worth so unless it's a special trip or anything like that it stays in my camera bag at home.

Agreed, I have two SLR's and the cost these days is silly, so I bought a cheap(ish) Olympus VG-120 to carry with me, but the smaller chips regardless of how many pixels do not compare with a DSLR.

It's true though - a disgrace to the rest of the bike. It was the original 20 year old tape though; I treated it to the Fizik Microtex for the Chrimbo refurb. Only problem with that is that it isn't that great wound old style (ie from the centre to the ends of the bars) - tends to peel open a bit behind the hoods. Not really sure what to do about that......
