Today’s commute was more interesting than most. The End. <\/p>\n
Joking aside..<\/p>\n
Cruising in to Regent’s Park Outer Circle I was going to do some cool down laps. I found a bunch swapping turns so I joined on the back for a bit, but rather than ride with them I decided to let them go – it was only a cool down ride after all and they were going too fast for me to actually lose heat.<\/p>\n
Another bloke asked if I was with them as I dropped off the back. “Nup”. <\/p>\n
I sat on his wheel as he was going slower, but then he tows me back to the bunch! I thought I’d latch on to them for a bit longer even though they were moving faster than I’d have liked. But then tower goes past the bunch – with me on his wheel. Doh! Is he doing turns with them now? Is he passing them? This feels all foreign to me now..<\/p>\n
Fsck it! I’m so used to riding alone and chasing down everything in sight I bust past the lot of them! Then, like the total knob I am, I turn off and ride the 50m left to work. I’m sure they were thinking “wanker” and I don’t blame them, I would be too. <\/p>\n
Instead of riding and\/or chatting with them and maybe finding a regular bunch to cut some laps with, I was a tool. Oh well – it’s not the first time. It wont be the last time. Sorry bunch people. *hopes they forget me*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
