I am sure you are correct. My only reservation/concern is (as I have said) if you are on ypur own and have an off** or a problem.
This is just an opinion......I am not suggesting we break the rules.
Out of interest the guide is not to cycle in groups. I googled "what is a group". A group is defined as 2 or more.
There's always the possibility I might bump in to a friend who lives in the neighbouring village. 🤫

Every room in my flat has four walls, a ceiling a door, and a floor except the hall which has nine doors 
I was going to go on the turbo, but my right knee started hurting so leave that for another day.

No, that imo is the right attitude and I am now ready to resume cycling. Just told MrsD I will out tomorrow. Just a 15 for me.The thought of injury has never held me back from any activity that benefits my physical or mental health.
I can see no benefit in being the most perfect corpse in the cemetery.
Dirk, I had to get back on to get home
.But my chest was sooo sore. I got the bike on its rack but no way could I get it down again till now.

Started painting the decking this morning, at least started on the railings. Takes ages !! Decking itself is next, then my bike shed. Coffee stops are getting longer as I work along......
As far as the cycling is concerned, although the weather calls for it, I will stick to what I said and not risk a fall and putting more pressure on the NHS. I know some of you might say I am far too cautious and the chances are no higher than in normal circumstances, but my conscience would bother me if I did. Anyway, 3 weeks is not that bad if the rules are more relaxed after that. Walking the dog will suffice for now and turbo training.

Both offs and problems are rare, I'm struggling to remember the last time I had a problem, most problems I can fix at the roadside, I keep a small toolkit in the saddlebag. Offs are the same, my last off was about five years ago, and resulted in a skinned knee and elbow. I'm thinking I'm going to just carry on and do rides like Monday's ride, straight through and without a stop.

Out of interest what do you paint the decking with?
When we had the static we had a big area of decking and nothing would last more than a few months.
At first I took photos which I sent to the manufacturer and they gave a full refund but we never found a solution.

Car passed MOT but got an advisory on front tyres. I knew this would happen as I checked them with the guy who was doing the MOT.
Crown fitted. Feels a bit proud but the dentist wasn't prepared to do any polishing down. He'll do it next time I go.
Mrs P has approved cycling. A good day.
Good things are beginning to happen. I mentioned the village help group which has formed. Charlie (female) went to the local veg shop. Came back with 56kgs of potatoes and has left them in her backyard - free to all to collect.
I'm NOT hoarding potatoes 😇
