A quick question, why....?

[young Ed]

A friend of mine, a funeral director, says I look good.

good for his business or good for your own sake?
sorry
Cheers Ed

Without going into too much detail, I cycle because I like it. Although that may change later in the year when a change of direction work-wise will probably mean I'll commute by bike, so I expect to be stressed, angry and full of self righteousness.

Endorphins, the good ones!!

 

[Pat "5mph"]

Eat more chocolate with impunity
Get to work and back in a third of the time compared to public transport ( no car)
But why, oh why I never miss a commute even in the foulest of weather?
Because if I take the bus, then see a cyclist I get this feeling of "what do you mean you can do it and I can't???"

Smugness?

We had one of my staff complaining about the drive to Glasgow....... I pointed out that I have cycled there, and back!

Cycling keeps me off the streets.

It's fun. I love going out a long run at the weekend or on a nice evening.
Mostly cycle on quietish country roads and just enjoy the sights, sound and feel when I'm out.
It's a great stress buster, plus I get to visit my little pony friends on my travels.

Good for my own sake. I don't think anyone in that line of work wants to see their friends on business.

 

[Drago]

I do it because I look good in Lycra.

 

[Nigelnaturist]

^^^ not sure about the looking good, but feel good in lycra, and at 6ft and 12st 4lb guess not a bad shape either, many things about cycling are good, from battling the elements in winter to an enjoyable ride in warmer weather, to challenging yourself to be better, to quicker times than public transport up to about 10 miles after that I think public transport may win, but it depends on connections routes ect....

was hoping not, don't think i would be mates with someone who wanted me dead!

I knew him before he got into this line of work. Never would have thought that would be a career choice for him. It has worked out well, though.

I've always ridden BMX / MTB but started cycling a road bike as I've always wanted one to achieve high miles in one day cycling roads, leaving the MTB for canal paths and off road, but also a way to lose weight as I struggle with weight. Not quite gone to plan but that's another story..............
So yeah, basically, I just like cycling.
