I’m nursing a broken ankle (and bike) after a school run mum decided to pull out in front of me Tuesday morning. “I wasn’t expecting a bike”, she said.

She has a point. When driving our regular commutes, I guess we tend to see only what we expect to see, with the rest fading into the background. If only more people cycle then she would have expected, and looked for me on two wheels before turning out of the side entrance into the road. It was her fault of course, but it was also ours for not cycling enough.

So I’m taking a break. Just when the weather was getting better too.

The UCI Cyclo cross world championships took place Sunday in Tabor, Czech Republic.
