Another week, another set of trecherous adventures into the unknown awaiting :) Mr Brompton was spotted on Devils Hill, but as I now know, he takes a right just after, so I just tailed him up the hill. I was pretty surprised at the speed he was doing (around 11mph) due to his crappy gear selection and the tiny wheels!

The journey in was safe, and a pretty average time. Under 40 minutes, which is always a boost, and no rain in site, although I do believe from @johngirvin, that it may be raining in November.

Anyway, I now have a challenge on my hands because the Big Mac himself has purchased a roadbike (Fuji 3.0 Newest I believe), and has raised the bar.

Christ almighty – where did that bloody wind come from? Probably one of the strongest I’ve felt whilst cycling, and it was gorgeous sunshine too :( I had to take it easy on the way home… Too much partying at the weekend seems to have given my chest problems a little nudge and it seems to be flaring again, so am gonna have to keep an eye on it.

I nearly got blown into vans and cars a couple of times from quick gusts of sidewind, that suddenly then turned into headon wind and slowed me down like buggery!

Devils Hill was a pain in the ass, as I spotted a target to catch up to, but just couldn’t summon up the energy… And then I nearly fell off the bike with my daughter on because some douchebag parked his car awkwardly over the pavement (on double yellows) whilst he “nipped” to the shop.
