Hooray! Today I rode in to work for the first time since before Christmas. A very good morning for it, too - a bit on the cool side and some wind but I enjoyed every minute.
I've had to adapt my morning routine at BHP, as we've been told to remove all gear from the shower room after showering. This actually gives me an opportunity to put my musette to good use. For those of you who aren't up-to-date with Euro-cycling jargon, a musette is basically a cyclist's feedbag - a light canvas bag with a long strap that you hang around your neck and eat from. Every stage race has a designated feeding point half-way through, where riders pick up musettes, traditionally containing jam sandwiches and rice cakes, these days more likely energy gels and bars. I saw one on eBay and couldn't resist it. it's been hanging in my office for a while so today I put my toiletries in it, slung it round my neck, and went to the showers looking like a pro (in my dreams anyway).

Bear Creek - Terry Hershey loop

Daily commute to work

This isn't quite right but it's close. 9.5 miles, about 40 minutes.
Terry Hershey Park

10 miles of safe, paved cycling bliss - except for all the foot traffic
The Sealy ride

45 miles through very pretty Texas countryside. Looks benign but there's a very hilly section at mile 35.
The Katy ride

It's on the Katy prairie - flat, flat, flat
