Cycle commuting
I saw a deer in the city on Friday, what's the most unexpected thing you've seen on your commute?
Riding home from work on Friday I met a young roe deer walking along the road in front of me - this was about a mile from the centre of Bath on a relataively busy suburban street. I've seen plenty of deer before out riding my bike, but never in the city - it was a special sight to see and It made me wonder what's the strangest, most out of the ordinary thing you've seen riding to and from work?
(the deer was okay btw, it legged it in to a large garden just as the people in the car behind me got their phones out to take pictures)
Cycle commuters, how often do you change your shorts?
Not seen this discussed anywhere else so purely in the interests of scientific enquiry I thought I'd raise the subject here. If you commute in Lycra how often do you change/wash your shorts in a week? My colleague Dave has been strangely reluctant to join me in the search for the optimum commuter short wearing time, so I'm asking you.
I'm guessing if your daily commute is an epic the answer will be every day, but what if - like my new commute it just strays in to the realm where Lycra is slightly the better option?
