    Windy but it's not that windy?

    Tested my helmet today.

    Yes, the "A" pillar combination of pillar and side mirror too often hides large areas of road, especially for shorter drivers whose cars have limited lift adjustment. Indeed, and I was pleased when the tax disc was scrapped. In my view every square centimetre of glass is too valuable to be...
