Noticeable increase of bikes on the roads yet nobody beats the grim determination of 'fat bloke on scooter' who rides the same commute as me. He's a really big bloke..French scrum-sized big, wearing a padded highviz jacket atop of a 50cc scooter during ice-snow-hail-rain-storms. His shoulders rub hedges and 90% of traffic overtakes him close enough that he could touch them. He dodges nothing..potholes...fuck potholes, twigs, stones, overbanding are where he chooses to ride.
His scooter has all identifiable features obscured by filth.
The bloke is a genius. ____________________ Diabolical homemade music Bandcamp and Soundcloud

Don't know how people can face a commuting mileage like that every day.Furthest i have ever lived from work is 7 miles.That sort of commute would destroy me mentally. |
It probably depends a lot on your job. I love what I do, and am paid pretty well for it, so a couple of hours a day commuting isn't a big deal. It's a bit specialised, so there aren't that many locations I could work.
Many years ago I used to do a 110 mile round trip commute, but half of that was glorious roads through the peak district. Stuck that job for 5 years.
My worst commute was 650 miles each way (as the crow flies), though that was normally only once a week (occasionally twice) for about four years, and done by car, plane, train, car/bicycle. Five hours each way was a killer - especially on the odd days where I'd do that as a day trip. |

Between 200 and 250 miles per week, consistently, throughout this winter. By the look of things today, the weekend warriors are back, being slow in rural Oxon and Bucks , so we'll see many more commuters as well from now until autumn. ____________________ Safety in numbers |

I'd have to work mine out as an average across the year. Doubt the number I'd end with would be much
higher than about 35. ____________________ Currently enjoying products from Ford, Mazda and Yamaha

Old Thread Alert!
The last post was made 7 years, 60 days ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful? |
