I've managed to walk from the bedroom to the lounge in my suite where I've been sat on my arse working for the last six hours.

Pumped.

Peaked too soon.

I've got 2 new tyres and everything.

And a new basket for Christmas.

But I'm frightened that some car will run me down the moment I go onto the main road, so I haven't actually used my bike in over a year.

Maybe I'll get it out one quiet Sunday in June, when it's not raining. Or windy.

No towpaths or somewhere quiet that you could practice?

BTW, vetran and I have provisionally pencilled in a training ride on 23rd - if you fancy a trip down this way you're welcome to join us.

I don't need to practice riding a bike, I can do that.

I need practice rolling over car bonnets. Or avoiding sliding under a van's wheels. Or missing potholes while not riding into the path of a lorry.
