Where does cycling rank in your life?

[BigonaBianchi]

probably more important to me than guitars

 

[Saluki]

b) Do it to just keep fit - and try to get thinner
d) Just something you have done for years
e) serious hobby and spend a bit of money on it
f) cycle everywhere and biggest part of my life apart from dogs and husband

I can't commute every day as I have 30kg of kit to haul about on dog grooming days. Tomorrow I am only dog walking so will commute in to work.
Don't suggest one of those cargo carrying bikes, I drove from Holt (work) to Wymondam (home) today and its too far to cycle if I want to do more than one job a day!

E and G

It's my passion.I need a fix everyday or as often as i can.I has led to many conversations with other older people while i am 'resting' at cafes.

 

[rich p]

...you roll your arse?

f) cycle everywhere and biggest part of my life apart from your family.

My job isn't a bigger part of my life than my cycling; it's just that thing that gets in the way of my cycling but allows me to buy cycling stuff.

Somewhere between E and G, but closer to F :S

I'd say family is up the top, and the next thing is my music. Cycling slides on a close third with the Gym and the other sports I take part in.

Work is just a means to an end. I'll get a pension in 29years 330days. Not that I'm counting!

Last year would have said a, and put my boyfriend above all else, then my cat, my family, playing music and finally cycling. Since then cycling has risen, but it is still just a means to an end, a journey without a destination is just pointless wandering as far as I am concerned.

E and F

Although, on F, I am reminded of Sean Kelly's wise words about the priorities in life.

 

[Hip Priest]

Somewhere between E & F.

 

[Primal Scream]

probably an "e"

Behind family and music, equal with golf and reading just in front of the gym although if I could still play, football would be my top sport.

a) Just a bit of a hobby
b) Do it to just keep fit
d) Just something you have done for years

Commute not applicable as I work about 200 yards from home and the safest place near work to leave my bike is ... my house!

I do it because it's a nice way to see the countryside if you're not in a hurry. A useful by-product is gaining some level of fitness; and it also helps financially as the more time spent cycling means less time spent doing my other hobbies which involve burning petrol, and in doing so, contributing money for the Chancellor to waste.

I was only talking to Ross (rb58 for the ultra-fussy ones) at the weekend. We like our R'ses to be Rolls - and no other. It brooks no further argument.
I'll try z) - it has got to be an adventure down there for sure.

E.

But i did take a sickie the other day to go our riding

 

[Sittingduck]

Between F 'n' G. Certainly more important than my job...! That's just a way to make money, so I can buy bike stuff and afford cake
