Now I know why I enjoy cycling.

[coco69]

I have many issues in my life and part of my therapy is to do an activity I enjoy which is cycling, I dont do it for speed however I do like to have a nice bike.
3 hrs cycling through billinge, burscough and around parbold...just me, jelly babies and some nice roads....heaven....I dont ask for much.

Can't argue with that.............

Sounds very familiar, whilst I don't have many issues (hope yours improve) I do have a very busy life, so time on the bike with the phone set to mute and just my own thoughts- or sometimes no thoughts- sorts me right out!

Black jelly babies make the world a better place.

I am more of an orange one

No, no and no!
White. Or red. Or green. Actually anything but black. I hate blackcurrant in any form or flavour.

Can't argue with that.............

Although this being an internet forum, someone will probably try.

Whilst being fortunate in not having too many issues I agree with you about the cycling - just look at my average speeds! Nice just to stop and admire the wild flowers or listen to the birdsong - or just the hear the complete silence out in the marshes.

Going fast should only be used to go further with the time you have. Never to cycle the same distance in a shorter time as that defeats the object of the time out in my mind.

As far as Jelly Babies are concerned, they should match or directly contrast with the colour of your bike!

No, no and no!

Wrong, wrong and thrice wrong!

 

[Renmurew]

Surely the jelly babies have to match the colour of your outfit! Yum yum.

Very occasionally on either my commute or weekend cycling, I experience my cycling utopia. The only sound is my bike and birds, perfect.

Whispered, Haribo is my preferred choice.

I like to tie a jelly baby to my handle bars on a down hill and scare the bejesus out of it .

My preference for black jelly babies took a bit of a knock when I ended up operating a jelly baby making machine at Bassetts up in Sheffield. I'm sure they've changed the way they make them since the 70s though.

Shouldnt the pc brigade ban jelly babies,after all it is cannibalism isnt it.
