Its been an interesting week. I originally wrote a post on Monday about a very hard day at work where I witnessed paramedics trying to save the life of a scooter rider who was involved in a horrible accident in East London. Ever since I started riding and especially following my big accident I've really struggled internally when reporting on these accidents. Despite the system not publishing the post, the actual act of writing it helped exorcise a few demons, so it wasnt a total loss. The good news is that I won't have to report on these accidents for very much longer as I have got a new job down in the South of England, away from the hustle and bustle of London. To say I'm excited and relived is an understatement. Its a whole new chapter and there are lots of route to explore on two wheels. Its going to be great.
In actual biking news, my Hel Performance braided hoses and my new tyre pressure gauge arrived this morning. I keep losing pressure gauges and its bloody annoying, but as they are vital, I feel its a must to always have at least one in the toolbox at any one time.
The weather has been turning very cold in the mornings and my Alpinestar 365 gloves just arnt warm enough for the task. I'm looking into getting some full on winter gloves, but with my change in circumstances, I might not initially be riding as much as I would like. Only time will tell.
