I am working away from home tomorrow and have spent all day getting here. For an hour before it went dark I managed to ride my tt bike into the sunset, turn around and ride back to the hotel. No moisture is falling from the sky. I had too many layers on. Once I had pumped the tyres up properly I was flying along, down country lanes, breathing in the fresh air and trying to time it perfectly so I didn't have to ride too far without the back light that I had forgotten.
It's so satisfying to be able to do it before settling down to do a last little bit of work before tomorrow. Make up for a few hours spent faffing, riding then sitting behind the wheel all day in the name of the man! Tomorrow I will go and talk engineering and pipes and buildings then I will sit behind the wheel some more on my way to my next site visit.
I did get to cross a bridge today and will get to cross another tomorrow which almost makes me feel like I have passed into another country. Alas it is only Kent. On Thursday I get to take a delightful ferry but on account of the proximity of the site to the port I doubt I will feel like I have strayed far from anywhere.
