outside exercise set to be banned

[rambo1]

f***ing cyclists!! Now I’m not anti bike - I use one to commute to work from time to time. I’ve also seen people out trying to get their dose of exercise who you can see aren’t used to riding a bike as they’re struggling along. The ones I’ve got the ump with are the half wits who think they’re in the Tour de France. They’re obviously getting up in the morning, kitting up in their ridiculous kit and then peddling furiously along due to lack of cars. Listen you retards...... you’re supposed to be taking exercise in the area around where you live not seeing if you can do 60 miles in 4 hours.

I agree, and btw 60 miles in 4 hrs really is very slow. Must admit though, I do enjoy the lack of traffic, most cars don't give you 2m social distancing or not.

sorry about the figures - was just giving a quick example as would have no idea of what these Lycra clad idiots hope to achieve in a given time. As you say they give all cyclists a bad name.

We will be the fortunate ones in our work if there is a total exercise out of your house boundary rule. I would go stir crazy if I couldn't get out and about. Going to work in that respect and in those circumstances will be my saviour.

Hope it is banned then wont have to put up with 100"s of cyclist and joggers going past me every day , some with no regards to distancing

100's of cyclists, ? really? Where do you live? Maybe it's because there aren't 1000's of cars hiding them.

YEs i deliver on the route of the olympic cycling event .I d say on a normal Saturday i see 500+ go past me and now 200+ dropped a bit but still some going past within a foot of me as im walking along and some in groups of 5/6

Ah Surrey, that'll be full of lycra clad business men pretending to be cyclists. They're the f in idiots that are gonna get proper cyclists banned from doing an hr or two of what they love, responsibly, to clear their head of all this madness and try and keep fit to stand the best chance if the virus comes knocking.
I would agree with you ,they are f in idiots but don't tar us all with the same brush ,please. If I see walkers on the path I give them more than the 2m rule.

Actually you saying this made me realise most of the groups i saw were middle aged men probably bankers riding from London

Yep agree 100%. Plenty of people moaning that they’re still having to work. Don’t think they realise how lucky we are to still be able to lead a relatively normal life. Long may it continue. Being stuck in will be dreadful unless you’re an overgrown kid who wants to while away their time on an x-box etc.
