Damn wind

Nothing like as bad as yesterday but still very blustery this morning and I was pretty knackered after a 20 mile commute into the teeth of it. Came down Gleadless Road this morning and it was actually quite tricky staying upright and in a straight line going down the steep 1 in 6 bit. Scary. Also realised that my front brake blocks had somehow loosened a bit and had turned through about 30 degrees. Basically braking against the tyre sidewall!!! Lucky it didn't cause a blow out. All sorted now and looking forward to being blown home this evening.
