"Ride 2 Work Day"

Today, apparently.

Anybody bother?

Anybody care?

Given that I pass the office three times every night on my way to have a
leak, not me.

I care. I care deeply about all sorts of things.

 

This "work" of which you speak?

 

Yes, and I did it in 15 minutes (SW14 -> Tottenham Court Road). Which was
nice.

 

What, for a 400m walk up a hill?

Erm, no. Actually, I could tell when it was Ride to Work day, when I
commuted in that London. We're better off without them getting the
fucking way of the jousting lane IMO.

 

Yup

 

heh, only day this week I've taken the car.

 

Mr. Fantastic says...

I saw more bikes out there today than I normally do, but it was sunny.
I took the car, didn't have any choice because I was out with my boss
all day.

 

I went for a ride .... but I didn't go to work.

Checking up on your tank filling skills was he?

 

In my previous job the company offered freebies and a free breakfast
to cyclists (there was no distinction then) so we asked if it included
us and they said yep. I always rode to work so I was chuffed.

My company are moving to a new building next year and they've assigned
48 motorcycle spaces. which will be nice for the three of us who
regularly ride in!

He did take the piss when I filled up, yes.

 

Lozzo wrote

Inevitable really. I do hope you were suitably sarcastic in reply.

 

Yes. As every other day.

Not really.

 

steve auvache says...

Not really. I did however make full use of the weather to stress a
point. That being, the rep's cars don't have air-conditioning and we
could really do with it. Driving around London today was murder in the
heat we had.

 

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "Mr. Fantastic"

"Work to Ride" more like.

Well woopee-doo!

Yes. Like on every other day.

IRDGAS.

I'd be marginally more interested if it were "Ride 2 Work, Ride Around
The Farnborough Twisties For An Hour At Lunchtime, And Ride Home Again
Day". Then I would know to take a break whilst everyone else clogs up
the roads.

 

I pillioned. Does that count?

 

Same as most days... brum-brum on 2 wheels...

um...

To be fair, they did offer me a water bottle when I biked in on the cycle
day.

BTW, I'm across at Longbenton on Monday for a 10am meeting ... want to meet
up for lunch at the Amble Inn?
