You're a proper commuting cyclist when...

[MacB]

when you hate days you're forced to use car or public transport

 

[Dayvo]

When your bike is the only one in the bikeshed because the weather is crap.

When your bike is the only one in the bikeshed because the weather is hot.

When your bike is the only one in the bikeshed because the weather is hot.

I had to think about that for a second

 

[HLaB]

When you forget your change of clothes and have to sit in lycra all day .

 

[clarion]

When you arrive in the office ten minutes early with a huge smile cause you managed a solo break from the A3 peloton

 

[upsidedown]

you look forward to budget day feeling fairly confident that mr darling won't be announcing a rise in "inner tube and banana tax"

 

[John the Monkey]

When at least one of your desk drawers contains spare cables, tools, a puncture kit, spare tyre levers, spare mini-pump...

you can eat and eat and eat and eat

...you chose your next house so it's far enough away from work so you get a decent run in the morning.

I have my kit hung on hangers on shelves, with a massive fan drying them...... have my own office, but no-one moans...other than a 'fellow' cyclist that comes in and says it stinks of sweat (on going joke - he's an ex. hardcore TT'er like me.....)

I have had comments from someone that a fan drying kit isn't eco....yeh....so......

Also had this week (first time ever) getting changed in another sites disabled loo.... 'rattle rattle' on the door handle...me 'oh sorry I'll be 2 minutes getting changed....'

"This is a disabled toilet"...well I get a move on... expecting some poor folk in a wheel chair...... nope..... get out, it's a colleague.... Me..."It's only me...I use it once a week blah.... (PS no bugger uses the loo...).......the toilets are really horrible and tiny....(she is not impressed)..

Anyway, she is perfectly OK at walking about, not disabled that I'd know....just lazy and heavy....FFS.....

She is so in need of the loo, she start's trying to have a laugh that I'd held up the loo..... with a senior member of staff that I'd just had a meeting with.... problem is the person she's talking to has a son who cycles lots (MTB races), fully knows I do as well......

I just apologised, I didn't have a go about her apparent non-disabled status.. laughed it off... silly cow.....

you get excited about getting a crank remover tool

I have a rack to hang my clothes on that sits behind the PC - the hot air blasting out of there dries must thing by the time to go home.
