[Biking and BMX] Cycle Commuting

OK I know it's not sport, but

Anyone else commute by bike?

I do Ibrox to Clydebank by national route 7 most days.... you can tell it's almost summer now by the fact that there are way more neds out drinking (and shouting things like "beardy") , leaving carpets of broken glass, and bloody puddles of paint to spray me with....

But hopefully due to the massively increased amount of exercise, sometime soon I'll not be such a fat cunt...

I cycle to and from work every day, use it to get to town and back, pretty much everywhere that takes less than an hour and a half on the bike.

So buy a bike that can take some abuse and explore a bit!

Hmm. I know there's a girl in Dales, but I guess I've never seen you in Alpine. I'm in there a lot, so I'll look out for you

Not talkative?! You wouldn't stop!! Why were you laughed at?

Hmm. Nicher. That sounds dodgy

I'll bring you Space Raiders. They're cheaper and there's only two kinds so I'm sure I'll get something you like There's too many sandwiches, so I don't know what you like.

Actually, I know you don't like cheese. It gives you nightmares

no i do like cheese, it just gives me nightmares. i eat it a lot though, so i have a lot of nightmares. ( i think i told you bout my spider hallucination? mibbe not, wasn't really listening to myself). btw, there are 3 kinds of space raiders. but i like all of them.

oh mibbe guna get a bmx instead of an xbox. after u left the other day she-dave came in and she sorta convinced me. but the lovely one that's been sitting in teh shop for tha last week or so has gone i sulked for a bit this morning when i found that out, i didn't even get to play with it. i wish i could make a pouting smiley. (pouting 'poutey'. im not guna use the word 'emoticon'. geeks.) actually i wish i could make any smiley that isnt or

anyway this is entirely off topic. and i guess ur right about the not stopping talking. it's what i do when im tired (and i am in work and bored)

Yes, you told me. I'll bring you all three kinds, tomorrow or Friday. Hope you're working, or I'll just look stoopid, bursting in with a bag of Space Raiders! lol

Yay for the BMX, they're sooo much for fun than computer games, and you might even get a tan
