Just a quick one today, finally back on a bike after two days lounging around, being snotty, and generally hating that the weather was wasting its niceness whilst I was stuck inside.With my bottom bracket still in need of replacement, I took the tourer along the canal - a pan-flat ride that can hardly count as training, but did at least get my legs spinning. It was also a perfect example of the cycling maxim "If you're not sure if the wind's blowing with you or against you, it's blowing with you", as was confirmed when I turned back into it.
Despite this, though, I was still, tragically, untroubled by anyone overtaking me. Considering how brilliant a city for cycling Glasgow can be, I actually find it disappointing that I have yet to be properly scalped here. Every time I see a likely-looking character turn off my route before I can catch up on the way home, I get a little bit more disappointed.
Cycling for cycling's sake is fun, but, sometimes, you just want a bit of challenge.
Good trails!
