Blown back from Bridgwater 17

Taking advantage of the wind today.  It is a strong south westerly, the BBC say it over 40 mph but it didn't feel that strong.  Took the 1323 train down to Bridgwater from Weston and rode back on the A38.  Some may say it is a busy trunk road which at times it is.  With the M5 running alongside it and the time of day, it's not too bad at all.


My train arriving.

He she is. Bang on time.  Despite the media barracking of British Rail, on a personal note have never experienced a problem.  The worst so far has been a 5 minute delay but then again, commuting in the south east must be a nightmare at times.  No problem getting on either, plenty of room for man and bike and 20 minutes later, after a quick stop at Highbridge it's out on the road back home.  


Covered 17 miles today, very quickly!  Average speed was 15 mph, an all time record but it was wind assisted in all fairness.
