Yes, nipped out at lunchtime for an hour and a half. Didn't do any work after though. Does that count?

Sadly not. I might have made a special effort to at least ride some of it but for domestic arrangements, which dictated a need for an early finish and a relatively quick (but legal - put the pitchforks down) zip home in the car. It's one thing going an hour early but two hours might have been pushing it a bit. 😆

Yes - I cycle to work every day.

Yep, no idea it was CTW day though. 3/5ths of us in the shop rode in, and one of those who didn't rode his MTB on a loop from work. It is a bike shop though, it'd be weird if everyone drove in.

yeh, 3rd time this week, largely weather dependent, but usually 3 out of 5 days.

Yep, pretty standard apart from having to climb through a fallen tree blocking the road.

I work from home and went for a ride before and after work so that counts?

No free croissants though.

I came in today, it was horrible, still windy, wet, legs dead and generally unpleasant. Saw a few more people than normal so that's good. But I really can't see how riding in today or yesterday will encourage anyone to to want to do it regularly.

Triked to work today. Always brings a smile. Except perhaps to the drivers behind who can't overtake due to the oncoming traffic. Tailwind too 😀

A bit late to this party, but yes, I did ride in yesterday. And I rode in today. Because I ride in everyday. /smug

I also rode in to work today via the Sportline show to have a stroke of the 2018 Genesis range, and to snaffle a free pastry and cup of coffee. No photos of the pastry, but here's a new Datum.

Was taunted by row upon row of shiny new NextBikes filling the racks in Glasgow. Replacments for the dwindling number of quite appallingly looked after bikes that have been available over this summer. None of the new ones come online until tomorrow morning at 9am, and the one shonky old bike that I could find came up with the inevitable "Bike Unavailable' message when I tried to hire it. So I'll be getting the Subway again. 🙁
