    yep and I have to commute by bike tomorrow as no car - typical.

    me too! at least its not too cold so getting wet isn't quite as bad as it could be! i'm hoping it will have rained the worst of it off by the time it gets to the midlands

    You hear the dreaded sound of a bee rattling around in your helmet vents wondering whether to pull over before you get stung on the bonce or keep going and hope it finds its own way out.

    Worst thing to happen to me was a bee going down my jersey into the armpit on a decent.

    Chavs thinking that they are clever by shouting abuse at you from a car window. Had my first one last night.

    I had my first about a week ago, it sounded like:-

    Rule 9 riding is a break from the norm.
    I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.
