Busy afternoon on Swains Lane today.
Great to catch up with clockwork killa back from his travels around less civilised parts of the world - hopefully see you at norths sometime soon.
Also, some bloke in fully-fairinged (is that a word?) racing recumbent, riding up the bit before the cemetery gates. I was tempted to stop and get a photo at the top, assuming he made it that far, but was worried he might think I was taking the piss. Then again he's probably used to the attention, it was an awesome looking machine but did look a bit like a fish out of water.
Unusually there were also several C11 buses going up the hill today cos Chester Rd was closed. One of them almost ground to a halt on the steep bit, giving me the opportunity to sprint past it leaving looks of awe and envy on the frustrated passenger's faces. Probably.
