Ride Entry – 23rd October 2009
Bike Humuhumu
Distance:31 miles
Commute. Nice and quiet going in, pitch black all the way now.
Coming home, nice enough although some chaps in a car shouted something at me in Warrington, so I shouted ‘cock’ back. So then they shouted something else, so I shouted ‘idiot’, then he waved his fingers out the window at me. Then they stopped at the lights. Then I caught up with them. Then they went really quiet. I couldn’t be bothered doing anything so just sat there next to them.
Then they shot off. Then I rode down another road and then just as I was turning onto the sankey valley trail they shot past me and shouted (and this was the first time I understood what they said), ‘fucking knobhead’, which made me laugh quite a bit, I happily waved a finger at them and carried on my way. I’m assuming it was all fairly good natured, cheered me up a bit for the ride home which was great. Very fast in places due to a tailwind.
Realised that once I am getting home I’m doing fuck all. Need to start doing more rides at night and more photography.
