I'm just wondering if there are any other autistic riders on this forum. I've always enjoyed riding although not always known I'm autistic.
I read something recently that suggested that cycling was a good hobby for autists due to the rythmic nature of it, and thinking about it this makes sense to me. When I'm cycling I like to get into a steady rythm which I don't like to break, even to the point I won't stop for a break during a ride when I really should. I also find it difficult to slow my pace down when I should be taking it easy.
If you're autistic do you have the same experience?
