Cycling is a wonderful way to explore but we all get into a rut of the same route week-in, week-out. Live 'life to the max' and do something a little different.

Cycling to work wakes me up. I start my shift at 6 am :). I think you can get used to the wheather, and wearing clothes keeps you warm in winter. Of course, I wish every cyclist only good wheather ;). Have a good day!

It will be more or less my first day back in the office later this month (Feb 2022) due to COVID restrictions at work. Previously I had parked my car at The Hawthorns, bought a train ticket but cycled in to work instead. I am now told that you must use public transport if parking at The Hawthorns. I don&#39;t mind paying to park but surely you must be able to park and cycle without the threat of being chased for a speculative invoice. Any way, I found that &quot;Just Park&quot; can be used to book a parking space at Asda at Great Bridge. From there I can pick up the Walsall canal and join the Birmingham canal and carry on with my usual route.
