Chicken or wise

Since the start of the month I have been riding round to the gym twice a week for an early morning Spinning session (hate the music but love the spinning), just to get back in too a routine, it's roughly a ten mile return trip but I have added extra's on the return leg at time's and because it's dark on the outward trip I dress up like Blackpool Illuminations, the cold frosty morning and winds have not bothered me but today I looked out the door and it was bleaching it down and the wind was going right in the face. So I used the car, which was on the drive, because I just did not like the idea of getting soaked before starting. Does this mean I was wise or just plain chicken?

Not sure it's either, guess you just don't like rain much. This morning was grim , dark, windy,rainy and very cold. Not much of an incentive to get on the bike but its what I do. Not sure I would have ridden to the gym in it though.

Wise.
Only cycle commute if you really want to.
You would have been mighty peeved off if you had commuted in that poor weather. Not everyone likes cycle commuting in all weathers

I ride whatever the weather except heavy frost or snow. Don't have studded tyres. I just wish I could ride, off the bike due to a broken A/C joint and it requires surgery.
