Re: Honourable reasons threadWelp, I was geared up to do my first commute on my shiny new road bike tomorrow, and I've just hacked the criminy whatsits out of the base of my thumb cooking dinner. So, yeah, not looking too positive. Respect the Global knives, people, never ever get complacent with them ...

Re: Honourable reasons threadBUM! Heal well Lizzy.
Shaun ...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.

Re: Honourable reasons threadNot riding tomorrow because I'm taking my year 1 and year 5 children to the first day of school for the year. Year 5er will still ride while I take his very heavy bag in the car - he has a new bike so is dying to ride to school as usual. I'm hoping I'll still get in my 2 commutes this week -it's forecast showers for some of the week so we shall see.

Re: Honourable reasons threadCould time on a stationary trainer in upright position be a sanity saver ?

Re: Honourable reasons thread
Well it does explain Norbs I had to drop my wife off this morning, so no commuting for me - I think that makes it twice this year that I have missed a day. I was going to buy a fast, stylish bike, but I looked in the mirror & thought "you're not fooling anyone, you know"

Re: Honourable reasons threadDoes this count? My office is over there somewhere. Smoke from fires burning in Indonesia is drifting across Singapore. The PSI reached 150 overnight, in the middle of the "Unhealthy" range. The bus is air-conditioned and the government says avoid strenuous exercise...

Re: Honourable reasons threadFinally getting over a chest infection with significant cough. Last week at home, mon, tues at home. Cough still lingering and has caused a significant injury to lower rib cage. Strong pain killers prescribed, imbibed and I'm not riding to work coz I'm off with the fairies for the first hour or so after taking the meds.

Re: Honourable reasons thread
borderline me thinks. I've ridden in smoke before and just cruised. I could feel the crap going into my lungs
Re: Honourable reasons thread
Is it borderline? I'd say buy a medical face mask and ride with that on.
