Joined towpath about 8 a.m. At hermiston. Plenty cyclists heading west but did not see another eastwards bike until I caught up on someone at leamington lift bridge. Freaky.

That's traffic
If you all go along nicely at the same speed, no jams (if well spaced out you don't see others!)

@bax, those titles take a lot of reading in themselves. Playing rules of poker with book titles
I see your Bauhaus, Black Magick and Benediction by David J Haskins with my The Origins of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind by Julian Jaynes.

Might not have been "no cyclists" day, just "all cyclists same speed travel at" day.

twas predictive text and no way to change the titel one alia acta est
Today was as enjoyable but different
Marco Pantani comes past me at about Cultins Road (has been on my tail for a bit). I am in shorts today. Il Pirata says to me on the way by, Enjoy the summer. I thought this was funny.
Not as funny as me then sucking his wheel until Hrrison Gdns but without him realising, even though my studs are grinding away on the towpath as Il Pirata has his earphones in. Also bad squeak but then he can't hear it. I towed him from Boroughmuir rugby pitches actually. And then at the final stretch to the lift bridge at leamington I went on the mud side and he took out a few peds to the photo finish at the bollards. I thought I nicked it. Or is that knicked it? No other bikes heading east though apart from me and Marco.

Gembo-san, this clarification comes as a great relief.
Let us all now donate money to the Orang-Utan Land Trust !
