Great ride today, being unstructured meant I didn't have to keep to a specific heart rate zone & could just go out & have fun on the bike.
This started out great until one exception which happened to be 'The Dreaded Car Driver' don't get me wrong most are very obliging to us cyclists but you do get the exception to the rule. On this one occasion I was turning right, I'd looked behind, signalled & was moving over to the centre of the road still checking behind me at random times.... OK so far so good, but just as I was going to turn the event happened, a vehicle came roaring up behind & was not going to wait so decided to overtake me (getting very very close) the vehicle had to go over the double white lines to manoeuvre around me, which was also on top of a hill on a blind bend, now that did send a chill up my spine, but I just composed myself & carried on (with maybe the odd hand gesture & a few verbal pleasantries added for self-satisfaction). The rest of the ride was very nice indeed even though the sun wasn’t shinning it was quite a nice day, slightly wet on the ground on occasions but was very peaceful out in the open country side.
