Congrats on your riding accomplishments. I can relate as I likely have an Autoimmune disease which has yet to be defined but new breathlessness on my beloved bikes forced me to deal with it.

I decided to walk to work in the morning. 5km walk and it took my about an hour (short legs). I ended up taking the bus home. Overall, I did 15K steps that day!

The joy of finding a new route, it isn’t really any quicker but it’s different and I guess that is part of the joy of commuting by bike - enjoying the scenery as you go.

Sometimes the early morning rides are the best. Being early to work and being able to sit and watch the world go past. People's stories from walking their dog to going to work. The still atmosphe... lees meer

Most interesting to read - I am worndering if I should l get a folding bike mostly for easier storage but have never tried one. How does cycling on a folding bike compare to a regular bike? - I use a hybrid for my short commute - great for roads and grass and hopping over pavements.

scary stuff! Glad you got help and support very quickly. I cycle along King Street and i am appalled at the amount of cyclists not wearing helmets esp the delivery guys. Hopefully you get a speedy recovery and the driver gets charged.
