• You're slower in winter. Considering that conditions in autumn were pretty good, you've probably improved. Every bit of riding you do in winter helps you in the summer. Well done, a great commute.

  • Thanks Oliver, yeah I've been spoilt for the last 18 months since I started riding (properly!). This winter feel's like its been the 1st proper one in ages. I can still only manage the commute by cycle maybe twice a week max at the mo. It does take its toll on my nearly 50 y/o legs but its a lorra fun :-)

    My place of employ changes from Holborn to St Pancras in January next year so I'll need to figure out if its still do-able. Any recommended flat and safe routes from (say) Silvertown to St Pancras anyone?
