Definately with the exception of me and one other brave soul who was wearing a Bayside Bandidos top. Thank fack for that, taking turns at the front made it much more bearable :-)

I think I went faster when I stopped pedalling this morning coming in.. :p

dang hairy.

tailwind and headwind I can handle, begrudgingly the latter

but blustery sidewinds were damn dangerous this morning.
kept thinking of bv-rider 🙁

Yeah, Centre Dandenong was a little dodgy. Normally I ride secondary down there, definately a primary day just to give me some wiggle room.

I chickened out this morning. The thought of the sidewind & mixing it with the trucks along Lorimer St were a bit much!

I was just about to leave, then noticed that inside got very dark
very quickly. This is why:

Ooh! Loud thunder! Good stuff 🙂

I've never seen it so centred on Melbourne. And it just appeared

But going home, will it switch around to 'wind assist' on both commutes?

Fine at first. North to northwesterly wind increasing then shifting cooler,
gusty southwesterly during the early afternoon. A brief shower or two developing and the slight risk of a thunderstorm near the change.

And as soon as I posted this, I broke the internet for 2 hours.

And furthermore, found out that I am no longer on that IP.

So try this if you so desire seeing red:

Hey, now I can go into work. Once it stops raining (imaginary rain,
it seems, out here).

Nah, bugger it, I'll just go into Abbotsford cycles. And suggest to
them that their webbage needs their opening hours.
