This morning I decided to ride my motorbike to work. All my usable bicycles are in the store at work. It won't start. Battery is flat. I try to jump start it, but cannot. I push it to the local bike garage not far away, for a jump-start. My alarm immobiliser decides that it's had enough of playing nice and refuses to disarm. So I leave it with the garage for the day and head back home to change out of the bike kit and take public transport. Fuck, I've left my Oyster card at work last night. So I have to Boris Bike it, but never mind, I can at least ride home on one of my bikes. Get halfway to work when I realise that I have left both the keys to my long bicycle lock at home and will have to take the tube or Boris bike it back home after all.
Fuck everything.
