an early start and extra miles in the cold and fog.
it feels kind of like the monks beating themselves. work is so hard at the moment and my head so wooly that i have to find steeper, longer hills, just so that the pain registers and i think of something else!

anyway, it was worth it this morning as i rode past 'old john' at the exact moment that the sun began to burn off the fog.

this is straight from the camera. i'll probably tweak a little later
