Another Errand

Posted on

Hi Coco,

Corning has a second Post Office. It’s not pretty like the main one, but it has BICYCLE PARKING. And not just any bicycle parking:

HARDCORE bicycle parking! Look, it’s bolted into the ground and everything. On the way home from posting a parcel to my sister, a nice old man said hello to me. That never happens if you’re in a car, unless someone wants to road rage at you.

I didn’t take a photo of my outfit today because I’ve been wearing pretty much the same thing every time I cycle. This coat is brilliant! I bought in in Chester just before we left the UK, which I thought was appropriate as Chester is famous for it’s ‘black and white’ architecture. And my Topshop gloves from the Tweed Run are still going strong. When will they bring out a range of bicycle gloves? I wish someone would!

When I got home I realised I’d forgotten to bring the other half of my postal errand: the Netflix envelope. I was obviously more excited about the journey than the destination.

  1. Tee hee! I’m usually more excited about the journey too. Great to see you’re getting out and about on Blackie, after giving birth to a 10.5 pound baby it will be a while until I’m back in the saddle but I’m itching to already!

    Love Coco xx

    • Ha, that’s OK! As long as this mild winter holds, I can hold the Internet fort. Very much looking forward to seeing how having a baby changes your cycling life!
      Also, I keep forgetting to mention – have you noticed how many times “wood moth” appears in our search terms? Love it! x
