Nice morning for it! Built up a clunker with a rack recently. It's become my do it all rat. It slows me down. I arrive less sweaty and adrenalinised. My only exercise these days is doddering to and from work though so I notice my legs are really weak. I have to get out of the saddle in the lightest of headwinds. Props to the concrete lorry driver who sat patiently behind me through two lights from Viccy Park to Mile End until it was less pointless to pass me. He sat right back, no hassle. Big thumbs up from me as he came past and a little pop of the horn. It could be so simple sharing the road if everyone were as chilled. 9/10
