You are SO good! I feel guilty now... my property is definately feeling the lack of love at the mo... I commute mon-fri then ride for pleasure at the wkend. For me anything less than 300kms is a short ride. 400-500 is a good day ride...tho have done the occasional 600km if I set out early morn

I ride just about every day, unless I need the car for something or its heavy rain. Light rain I dont worry about, but I need to be "presentable" for work, and there is nowhere for me to hang up wet gear. I get dirty looks from the boss about the wet carpet when my gear leaves puddles . . . dont care if it rains on the way home tho, cause the gear just gets hung up in the garage or the hot water cupboard.

Currently tho the cars out on loan to my sister, so at the moment I'm riding every day.

Would prefer to take the bike to work but have a company car ( free petrol

). Was riding most weekends but sprained my ankle a couple of weeks ago and can only now get my boot on

Ride everyday to work.. unless both my tyres are shagged beyond and back.. then I drive my loverly girlfriends BMW... but I'm getting the ol trusty TL back this evening.. just in time for the Pie N Pint ride! sweet! I've missed the ol girl for the past week (riding the bike to the shop with the shagged back tyre I just wanted sooo much to open her up... but was kinda wiery of it busting on me.. had it happen on the ol GS550.. side to side lock till I got it under control.. think I may have been lucky to have someone on the back to lend some weight... or maybe not?)

I work at home, I tried but it seemed so hopeless, get into riding gear, sit on bike in garage, get out of riding gear, have coffee. Looks like weekends only!
