Have I become a fair-weather commuter?

Real men do rotating shifts days and nights .

Thanks mate! That's just what I do actually

That's the 'them'n'us' attitude showing through Potsy! In reality I have my coffee black (with the odd Mocha thrown in!)

You need to bin the marathons, they suck the life out of you !! Get some fast tyres.

Heresy

Yep.

Why does everyone think that going fast is the key to enjoying cycling? I'm slow but I love cycling and only needing the car for work stops me commuting by bike.

 

[potsy]

No Marathons here, Durano+ on the road bikes, Ok maybe I have Marathons on the CX but they are the Supremes not the +'s

And no-one can accuse me of being fast, on the commute or anywhere else

Get using the Secateur bike !

I've never sat in an office in my life, I'm a manual worker, a horny handed Son of toil, always have been, and with only two and a half years before retirement always will be.

Ride the caad. Ditch the tractor bikes with all the crap on them.

That will help.

Hmmm..
..potsy starts working with skolly...

Potsy becomes a lazy car potato and hates bikes.....

Theres laws against workplace bullying

Potsy now has a blooming good route to ride too. Flippin heck. Yeh it's road, but it's fine. No more TPT shenanigans for us, but my route is also no point using it.

Next winter my shortest route is 10 miles on Studded MTB tyres on road. Off road will give me about 4 off road, and 8 on. Gonna have legs like.... (jelly) !
