I actually tried to mount my car seat in the same way I get on my bike - I put my right foot in the car and tried to swing my left leg onto the seat, then realised something was not quite right :oops: :lol:

    You'll know it's getting really bad when you're giving other cyclists the wave and pointing out potholes.... while walking along the street!

    I have a little tin cyclist on my dashboard (just like the avatar <-- but in italian kit). This means that when I'm condemned to driving I can imagine myself in the peloton, or perhaps as team manager in the support vehicle. He is called Luigi. I encourage him on hills.

    Ok, now that is too much information :oops:

    I find myself sitting in the van flicking my right elbow out when I want someone to overtake me. :?

    I find myself alternately pressing the clutch and accelerator about 90 times a minute when I drive. I also have a cafe stop for cake every 30 miles. Getting to Cornwall last year was a nightmare with 9 cafe stops each way.

    When driving I cover one nostril and blow the contents of the other one all over the inside of the car every three minutes.

    I know the feeling. Last summer I stopped at a junction and started to panic as I hadn't even started to unclip; I was in the car... :oops:
  • Up hills, I put the car into 1st gear, drive at 4 mph and turn the heater up to get a sweat on to mimic my climbing ability :oops:
    Wind. Cold. Rain. Pick two.

    I got clipped into the clutch and accelerator pedals the other day. Stopping quickly presented the usual challenge.

    It started raining the other day and I drove my car under a bus shelter and stayed there until there was a clear dry line so my bum wouldnt get wet :oops:

    The fact I only have one gear lever and 6 gears is strange. I demand at least 20 gears and two levers. I shall buy a tractor...

    I no longer use mirrors when I'm driving, I just have a look over my shoulder.

    I'm obsessed. 2 o' clock in the morning ride around London just to feel the urge of speed on turns.
