Rode along the seafront today from Bournemouth to Poole.
There is a strong easterly blowing, and the kite boarders are playing in the waves,
its is cold and im wrapped up warm however the cold dosent matter because of the heat im generating.
There is hardly anyone around so its an opportunity to open up to full velocity,
clipped in fixed, riding the back of the smooth snaking promenade at perfect steady cadence, the surface is like flat glass, and it is silent, wind totally behind assisting perfectly, this is the closest it comes to track riding outdoors and it feels like youre floating, just regulating the triangle of energy between arms-legs and body.
heaven.
