He said I was insulting 2 sections of the population.
So who was the other section of society he claims I was insulting....fashionistas?

Enjoyed a very sunny 40 miles this morning with the club that I’ve newly joined, the pace was just right for me and it was nice to be riding in a group again after two and a half years of solo riding. They meet in town so it means 5 miles of city centre traffic to join them but it wasn’t too bad. Nice to be in a club again.

Re the mental health stooshie that has kicked off while I’ve been out, I’ve had mental health issues and 15 months of counselling and I am indeed offended by the insensitive tone of some of this morning’s posts.

I don't want to prolong this - but another poster was referring to school children needing counsellors for every little problem - that to me was the second group. Of course I may be wrong.
I'm aware that this thread isn't by normal territory. So I'll leave it there.

The poster said “in many different levels”, ie plural, why not spell the out? What were the “other levels”, you have mentioned one possible reason….

Afternoon folks 
Went for a stroll into town and had a quick browse in the charity shop- bought a wallet as the one i have is knackered. Anyhow i thought that every time i go into town and back home along the beach i'll pick up a bag of sea weed for the compost bin. So along to the river mouth and was pleased to see dolphins fishing 
they ambush the salmon entering the river. They were'nt leaping about but concentrating on their fishing, a back and fin would surface then under again, i stopped and watched them for a while then gathered some sea weed and came home.

It has been over 50 years since I studied Sociology in college but I recall the concept of "anomie" as expressed by Emile Durkheim. His idea that the societal rates of mental illness, suicide, violent crimes were an index of how well that society met the needs of its members. In many ways, at least in this country, it seems to me that the psychological basic needs of people are not being satisfied.
However, it is a gorgeous day here and I intend to enjoy it.
Be well and safe.

On the same note, I was told there is a group of retirees who meet every Wednesday at 10 am and go for a 35 miles ride. Where they meet is about 7 miles from me so I might give it a go one day. I believe one of them uses a ebike thought.
