Tuesday 13th September- commute.
The weather forecast suggested it would be 9°c this morning and it certainly felt cool. It was fine when I was in the morning sun, but I'm going to need to dig out the long sleeves soon.
The autumn feel continued with dew on this fine crop of mushrooms.
The run home was a lot warmer and with a little tail wind, I pushed hard on the pedals and found myself going faster than the motor assist for a good part of the journey.
I passed an older fellow on a beautiful orange and blue Thorn tourer. He said he was on his way to visit his daughter. Whenever I see a Thorn bike I immediately think 26inch wheels. It's strange how they seem so small to me now. I prefer the easy rolling 29 or 700c but I think there's definitely a place for the compact strength of 26 wheels. It's just they look a bit faulty on the size of frame I need.
