lovely day to cycle in, but I am seriously considering giving it up. I am so tired of being nearly hit by cars and vans that refuse to acknowledge cyclists as a person when dangerously overtaking. They leave so little space between my shoulder and it's side that I probably couldn't fit a cigarette paper down there. If it weren't for the absurd price of the tube I'd use it in a heart beat; yes it's stressful but at least you don't regularly almost die.
