Long way round

No, not another thread on the T.V series. :calm:

I am starting to notice a disturbing trend.....well....maybe not so disturbing.
Anyway, this morning I rolled outta bed, bleary eyed etc, got into my gear to ride to work, got to the end of the drive....and then turned right when I normally go left!!!
I actually took a detour to make my trip to work longer so that I could turn my ride to work into a 'ride' instead of a commute.:scooter:
Anyone else find themselves doing that? Or am I an oddity among men?

Not just you, I went round the back through Karori into the CBD yesterday instead of straight into town. Lost of fun twisties, and better than the usual commute.

All the time bro, all the time. To the point that I don't even bother with the commute any more - just do a pre-work ride...

[kevfromcoro]

It's a beautiful thing to know I'm not the only one. Only reason I didn't go for a ride today at lunch was because I had to errands to run in town....bring on this evening!! :woohoo:

[bones135]

I'm a bit like that ... ride to Sylvia Park for a magazine ... end up in Cape Reinga ... go for an ice cream ... end up in the 'Tron ... go for dinner ... end up in Wellington ... go to Kaiaua for lunch, but change mind and ride to Raglan instead ... that sort of thing! So yep, know what ya mean!
