  • I have no desire to ride outside at all these days.

    It was realising that I felt the need to have cameras record my rides because of the frequency of shit driving, close or punishment passes and I no longer have the energy to argue with shit drivers that sold me on turbo sessions.

    When lockdown happened it meant fewer cars on the roads so people just started driving faster.

  • Does sound like either overtraining or you're fighting something off.

    Maybe take a week off the bike and don't beat yourself up about not exercising?

    If the thought of getting on the bike doesn't feel appealing then something is up, and pushing through that won't help in the long run.

  • Just take a break. Have a week off. Work the garden. Do some positive thinking.

    I can't speak for your roads, but I feel the same. Then I go out, sort myself out, and even the dickheads don't phase me 5 mins after they've gone.

  • I have no desire to ride outside at all these days.

    I get you.

    Also why didnt you buy wattbike atom or wahoo kickr bike?

  • I totally hear you. The trade off for me to get some headspace is worth the odd dickhead. But I can easily get out to the countryside so it’s easier to avoid them.

    Only one today who decided to squeeze me against a kerb at a roundabout because I pulled in front of her at some lights. I also told a guy to fuck off when he tried to claim I MUST use the badly designed cycle lane (but I actually enjoyed that encounter because I could see him instantly turn puce).
