You know it's going to be a bad commute when.......

You walk out the door after a long day, only to find a flat rear tyre.

Feel free to add your own.

...you are cruising on the shoulder thinking that what a genius you are and suddenly flashing blue lights appeared in the rear view mirror.

You can’t remember where you left your bike the night before.

You're in a hurry, legs are tired ... and headwind.

You live in Darwin, it's 0700(7am), the sun's up, the temp is 30(already) and the humidity is 75% (or pouring).
I could have said "You walk out of your air conditioned room and your shirt is wet after the 90 metre walk to the bicycle." At least that is shorter than the 300 m walk from the car park to work (where the bike gets parked right beside the door.

You realise you’ve left your keys at home after you arrive and need to take a dump.

You know it was the wrong day to commute when... someone asks "Did you swim to church today?" :oops:
