As I headed off this morning, I confidently predicted that the mess from Saturday's storm would all be washed away by last night's rain. It just shows how wrong you can be...
To think, I really used to use this light.
"We have a wonderful network of over 25,000 miles of cycleways in the UK, with smooth tarmac and direct routes to the places we want to go. All we have to do is get the other people using those cycleways in their motor vehicles to do so safely and properly." -Regulator, Cyclechat [via @

"Bicycle riders should know their proper place, the ditch on the side of the road." --'Brighton Snob'.
A rare fall of rain adds a bit of extra "interest" to the bike trails.
Do drivers and cyclists come to the road primed for misunderstandings?
"It's just as fun as when you were a kid. You go zoom! and whoosh! You're a sky creature, not a miserable earth-crawler. And you get to the end of your commute feeling invigorated and intensely alive." --Dale Favier
"I just feel so free and just like I'm lovin' every minute of life and it's...it helps. It's therapy for me, y'know pedallin'" --Steven Marmo, The New York Times
When it comes to buying cheap cycling shoes, I should have trusted my gut instinct.
