• No snow to contend with in Leeds this morning, but a taxi protest has brought one of the main ways into the city centre (Kirkstall Road) to a halt.

    Apparently they're protesting because they keep getting fined for parking in bus stops, & their way of retaliating to this is to bring gridlock to the Monday morning commute - not exactly going to ingratiate many to their cause.

    Didn't impede my progress much thanks to the bus/bike lane. Did get into an argument with a driver stopped in the middle of the bike lane claiming 'it's not my fault I'm here'. Err, yes it is when you're the driver. Nice tailwind roughly cancels all the rubbishness out for me though.
