I was driving to Amersham from my work place last night in the pitch black/pouring rain. Out of no where I was almost upon a guy on one of those little bikes that RJ (youtube) has. He just appeared in front of me. Guy was wearing all black and had no rear lights! I only saw him when he used the brake approaching a round-about even though that didn't work fully, had a strobe effect where it'd pulse and then fade. His number plate was not visible either as they're usually reflective so that'd have at least been something.

I tried flashing him a few times but he shot off down a country road.

Think its about 5-6c here atm..but! There is not a cloud in the sky and it's so painful sat in the office next to the window.... A lunch time ride is a must today (happens most days tbh :D )



edit: Actually this raises a good question to you lot - What mileage do you do because you have to, and what mileage do you do because you want to?

For example: I use my bike to get to work. I have to do a round trip of about 8 miles. However I rarely do this as there are more fun routes to take on the way back and I ride at lunch times to get away from my desk. So I actually do about 35 ish miles a day instead.

At the moment just commute during the week, about an 18 mile round trip, whenever I go out for a ride after work I end up in hospital.... ; P

Once its nice again I will be out on the weekends and track days.

I also sit near a window at work and I can stare at my bike all day long :D
 
Around 200 miles a week commuting and pleasure,it depends,last 5 months very little due to being ill,I'm just using the bike for essential trips atm

200 miles a week commuting, another 50-100 if the weathers decent at the weekend.
 
Hopefully you're OK!. I had a period when the same was happening to me..


grisly details
Every time I went to number 2 I was passing A LOT of blood. I was too scared to get it checked out until I spoke to my partner about it who then grassed me in to my mother and friends and they all convinced me to go have it looked at. My Grandfather had bowel cancer so that was their concern.

Turned out it was nothing major and I just had to adjust my diet!

I'm sure you'll be fine
 
I want to go for a ride. Blue sky, sun shining, salt is gone, roads are dry and I need to be in the office at the moment :(

Supposed to rain tomorrow & Friday as well.
