What a lovely cycle home i had last night!

[Lee]

I had the most gorgeous ride home ever last night.

It was bright and sunny and warm and it felt like i could do
another 10 miles easily!

Its looking like another similar afternoon today so i CANT
WAIT to get out of here at 5.15!

You probably had a stiff easterly wind - I had the same
feeling. I
deliberately rode 15 miles into it so I could enjoy it on
the way back.

Bast*rd easterly wind you mean. It's not fair, practically
every day I have a headwind into work, and by the evenings
it's gone so I don't get any benefit from travelling the
other way on the way home. And as if that's not bad enough,
on days like yesterday it has to turn into a damn headwind
on the way home! Grrrr.

On a separate note, for some reason it always seems 'wrong'
to me to call a wind by the direction it blows _from_.
Somehow my mind always wants to think of, say, an east wind
as one that is blowing _towards_ the east (I wish it was,
last night!). I have to consciously remind myself that is
not the convention, but I remain unconvinced that this is
the way it should be!

Quite probably - it was great!
