Ride home for Thursday, 16 November

So much for the weather today, it degenerated back into precipitation. I also had some bad news, the accounts department at work are refusing to pay for my mileage on the grounds that it doesn't cost anything to run a bike. My boss was less than impressed by this, and instead I'm just going to expense the parts that have worn out as a result of company travel, and any bike bits needed. I'm starting with my trip to Truro, where I needed a new cassette, new chain, new chainrings and wheel truing as a result of the trip, and needed to buy a front rack and panniers to carry all my gear up there. A ballpark add-up of the costs comes to more than double what the mileage came to, so it's going to be interesting to see what the fallout will be on that...
