    I get very grumpy when I'm stuck down in London at uni. Even if I had the bike down here I tend to have to spend most of the time actually doing work (yes I know it's weird... work and student :shock: ) and don't have the time to head out anywhere to ride properly.

    On top of that I have no room to keep a bike down here. It makes me very very grumpy :(
    It's the opposite for me, I find myself doing far too much riding and not enough work when I'm at university (in Bangor), and I get grumpy at home (Nottingham) because there's not a lot of decent riding there.

    Just had a week of no riding due to torrential rain and family committments.

    Fortunately tonight my son decided he didn't want to go to Cubs, so I got out and had a great, unscheduled ride.

    I haven't been off the bike for a week for ages. It felt great to get back on, and I probably enjoyed the ride more.

    We are managing to squeeze a cheeky ride in tomorrow morning - can't wait :D

    Although, as is the way with these things, I realised this morning that I have no rear brake pad. And no spare. Pah :?

    It's perfectly possible to do a ride with just the front, long as you take it easy. :wink:

    Yikes, I am out for 20 miles tomorow morning, collecting my eldest from Triathlon training then doing ten more miles with him, whole family out cycling Sunday, then a night ride in Thetford Forest Monday night, yet reading this has brought me out in a cold sweat! No more threads likethis thank you very much! :twisted:

    Probably would be the case if I could get out and ride enough to feel that I've missed a ride... :cry: Regularly wish I could be out on the bike but theres degrees and stuff that must come first given how much they cost now :shock:

    Cant wait for the summer break. Only thing is then come next year ill be going stir crazy sitting knowing itll be Christmas before I can get out again - and thats if we dont get any of the white stuff again.

    *Edit* Much as this is my first post and a pretty negative one at that, I have been using this website for a while now, technical issues with e-mail accounts and stuff meant I should probably start a new account (as it was I wasn't very active and doubt that will change)
