It makes me smile

I seem to have been grumbling about cyclists and about traffic lately and unless there is a massive shift in policies, regulation and enforcement I probably always will. Don't let that make you think I don't love cycling, I do, and it is why I've set up this blog.

My ride in to work this morning was a reminder of why I cycle rather than use the alternative, slower and more expensive options of my car or public transport.

The weather was lovely (OK minus 2 is a bit cool on the face), the air was clear and fresh, the views were stunning and people I passed tended to say hello.

All in all this is why I cycle - it is fun and it makes me feel good and if that isn't enough reason then the benefits in terms of health, economics and convenice should surely swing it for more people.
