Where ALL the lights on red this morning? Oh well. Still enjoyed it.

Bike #2
  • 50m 01s

I think the lights are being vindictive about that fast ride home the other day....

Sat through a screening of the new Pixar film Brave last night. Just me and the composer Patrick Doyle and his team here and the Director, Producer and multi Oscar winning mixer Gary Rydstrom at their end. I felt a teeny bit intimidated in that company, but they wanted my opinion!! Nice. Pixar seem to show a lot of interest in me lately...... Probably nothing, but nice none the less.

To work. Mild and damp morning. Crossed one section of bike path where a drain had overflowed and left the tarmac as slick as the Passage du Gois after high tide! Don't touch the brakes!

Bike #2
  • 42m 54s
  • 12.30 miles
  • 17.20 Mi/hr

Home. I believe that is a new record for the commute ;)

Righto. The old logging and blogging has been a bit lax the last few weeks. Oh well. Life gets busy from time to time.

Ordered some new rubber and wheels for the fixie as the new style Vittoria Randonneurs are no match for the old ones in terms of puncture resistance. Wheels were coming up for renewal as both front and rear had a nasty 'pot hole bulge'. Got a cheap pair from On-one. Lets see how I get on with those. The new rubber is Continental Gatorskin Hardwall. I've had no punctures on my GP 4 Seasons and as these are more hardcore hopefully they'll be up to the commute. We'll see.

And for the ill informed here's the Passage du Gois.
