Hit and Run by White Van

Again, Ashe, not blaming you for incidents like this or the driver's attitude, but there's a lot of evidence here that you would benefit from some training. It will transform your enjoyment of cycling.

But Oliver, though you may well be right, has it ocurred to you that I do not actually want to enjoy my cycling? And..........that I see it as as a chore, a burden, a punishment from heaven....where I aimlessly get on my bike, get to work, get on my bike, get home?

Its a form of ritualistic flagellation. Not to be enjoyed.
