Sometimes I do wonder why I cycle.
First some bint overtakes me and then realises there is a central bollard, so swerves back in to avoid it almost hitting me. Stupid bitch. My only consolation was knowing that she was more shit up about than I was.
And then some bloke toots his horn at me from behind (I know why) but then moves to the next lane and gets stuck in traffic. So I hammered on his window and said "what is your problem mate" and he shouts "you were in the middle of the road!" (told you I knew why... soooo predictable). So I then enter into a tirade of abuse pointing out to him in no uncertain terms that at a junction when I'm going straight on I'm entitled to be in the middle of the lane and he should read the f*ckin' highway code and I'm not one of his little women that's gonna move out of the way for him and besides, where did he f*ckin learn to drive? India?. You may have guessed that he was indian, and I'm not proud of my racist abuse, in fact, now I've calmed down, I think maybe I should have just reminded him of the rules of the road calmly because I've done absolutely nothing for the cause of cyclists. But there are times when you just have to think of and hurl the worst abuse possible because some drivers are just fukwits.

About me
Hi, welcome to my blog. I started riding to work in 2005, then decided to do London to Paris ride for charity in 2007, met some great people, formed a "charity team" with them and haven't looked back since. I've done the Paris ride 3 times now, andplanning on JOGLE at some point, plus if funds allow maybe something more adventurous (the Amazon is currently on the list). I originally started this blog to keep track of training and to let my sponsors see how I was getting on, but now I just post any old crap... all to do with cycling of course (",) and a bit of swimming now.

Sometimes I used to wonder why I insisted on commuting to work on a bike.
Why didn’t I safely drive to work and arrived there warm and dry?
Having had to drive to work for the last month instead of having ridden I can now tell you exactly why I used to cycle. It’s all very simple. When I cycled into work I used to arrive at work with a big smile on my face and feeling relaxed whereas driving seems to cause nothing but stress.
