was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea:

usual commute this morning consisted of:
Tailwind!
You must be going in the opposite direction to me, eh?
23.5km/h average.
Quoted message said:less traffic than normal (people planning for a 'big session'
tonight???)
lots of courteous drivers!!! (even a semi driver waited as i apporached
from almost 100m away)
One van driver who overtook me, despite me being in the middle of the
lane, just in time to get back in the lane before the traffic
"calming" device, whereupon he braked suddenly and went right without
indicators on. And then proceeded to wonder why there was a heavily
sarcastic cyclist behind him saying "thanks mate!".
Next time I ride on the extreme right hand side of the lane.

Come to CM! With your fixie, I hope.
I probably won't stay for long, or for a pub afterwards, I think some
guys here are going out.

"Indicators:
There are controls in each vehicle that cause little bits of coloured
plastic to flash on and off at the corners of your vehicle.
Pretty, aren't they?" -- friend of Richard Sherratt in aus.bicycle
