No risk of that here…..I struggle to get out nearly enough, especially in the winter months 🫣

Not an addict but since I retired cycling has helped fill the 'work' gap. I spend endless hours in the garage fettling, work as a volunteer for a bike charity and build more wheels than is good for me. I get rims, hubs, spokes and rim tapes before they end up in the scrap and build wheels that can be used on refurbished bikes. I get 3 x 3hr rides a week in too. I still manage to get a few domestic chores/DIY jobs done to stay married :whistle:

Weeell... you could substitute cycling with so many other pursuits -angling, football, birdwatching, constructing a replica of Crewe junction in the shed. Sometimes it's healthy for two people to spend time away from each other doing different things, maybe it's even the thing that enables them to tolerate living with each other in later years. More practical than separation, less expensive than divorce. I wonder how many people stick together to the bitter end because they ultimately can't afford to live apart. If you can afford it, splitting up is achievable. For many, they just have to make the best of things somehow. People change and sometimes grow apart. Not everyone finds their soulmate, even if they think they have at first.
