the folks that manage the building say you can't leave your bike lock there; however, i was chatting with a guy in the change room last week, and he said folks leave their locks there. I left mine thier discretely. I also leave a selection of shoes and a shave kit in my desk to aviod transporting this stuff daily.

Once again the wind last night was out of the south, which meant some extra work to get home. I am trying to think that it is just extra training, but it would be nice to have a tailwind soon.

That southerly to SE wind today sure was a strong one. Hope it was in your favour? Always good to check wind direction before leaving and have a few favourable optional routes. Even with that strong tailwind today I passed some people who seemed to be struggling along at 15kph... meanwhile I was more than double that... (safely, or course, and only in wide open sections).
