I left work early and by 6:20pm I was home changing into my cycling shorts and base layer. After filling up my water bottle I left the house and within minutes I was changing up through the gears between two sets of local locks when all of a sudden I'd ridden through a wall of flies which I just about managed not to swallow but my eyes were already watering ... damn it in my haste to get out I'd forgotten to add my Sinner sunglasses. I had one of those 'do I don't I' turn round moments before hankering on the front brake and spinning around, I was less than 3 minutes away from the house what's it gonna cost.
I returned home and collected my sunglasses from the inside lid pocket of my pack and before I knew it I was peddling out again only this time concentrating on making up a few minutes of lost time. |
