liadnanHot, dry, and sunny, that I like, and have spent much of the last three days enjoying. But as those of you in London don't need me to tell you, this afternoon's switch to the muggy is disgusting. I would rather like to go to sleep, however I am, all of a sudden, busy, plus we have an evening of watering with booze the hands that feed us this evening. With our luck there'll be a thunderstorm*.
Nasty close run thing on the bike at Holborn Circus this morning. God forbid that a bike should actually be in the bike lane when a white van wants to push over into it. Right into it, so that one of my pedals mounted the kerb and the other gave his paintwork a much deserved scratch. At one of the nastiest junctions in central London. Cycling in the sun would be fun if it weren't for the fact that everybody's concentration is that little bit off...

*and, right on cue... "here comes the rain again...."

They show cycle lanes (whether off road, on road or protected etc, assisted junctions and recommended "safe(er)" roads with none, little or the least traffic. You should be able to find a way round with these.

Keep those peepers peeled.
