I had to drive around 1500km this past weekend in a rented mini-van. I don’t own a car, so that’s probably more distance than I’ve covered in a motor vehicle in the past 5 years.
Today, back home and on my way to work, there was rather torrential rain, but I was still so thankful to be back on the bike.


I don’t mind the rain as much as all the washing you have to do when back home.
Yes, this. I can shower and throw my clothes in the wash, but getting all that road grit off the bike is a pain.
