The morning commute was just over an hour in the van and sometimes twice that coming home in the evening traffic.
I could do it in around 45mins on the bike once I‘d learnt every overtaking point, speed camera location, traffic light sequence, pot hole etc.
I sometimes used the stop watch feature on my dash but stopped doing it after I was taking too many risks just to shave off another 30 seconds.
I had to remind myself how old I was after a hot chick in an Audi S4 egged me on for a race whilst waiting at traffic lights in Leeds.
We made a sweet sound when I took her from behind in the underpass.....
Try a T7. You will love it.
