It's getting a little bit darker both morning and evening now as winter speeds relentlessly towards us whilst we're still wondering when the summer actually happened (again). It's been a little easier to swallow over the past few days as the weather has been absolutely superb - if Doctor Nature wrote a prescription for perfect cycling weather then this is how it would be. Nothing has been nicer than the ride home as the sun begins to set and London is bathed in gentle sunlight whilst the air is just the right side of cool as I gleefully pedal along (in a funny way it reminds me of the same sensation I had when I tasted the first incarnation of cool mints back in the early 80's - strange, the things you remember). It would be nice to think it might last until next Sunday's Ride of the Falling Leaves (which I have now entered after they opened up some more places) but I'm sure it won't.
