Today i nearly came to a complete halt on the a38 out of Bristol.
The wind speed was such that i almost went into a trackstand.
I was unprepared for such extremes of weather but feel battle-hardened by the past three days of commuting, pushing the envelope in the 2012 base mileage quest.
as a random aside, here’s a raleigh publicity picture i came across:
ha ha like it …I had recorded average of 28mph this mornign commuting into Wells acroos the Somerset levels first thing but a totally different story coming home 1.5 hours later and avergae of 12mph!!! Like you I feel if I can do this day in day out I can do anything!!;@))
