Those of you who encouraged me to cycle to work - thank you.

Have name changed since my original thread.

I have never had any interest whatsoever in exercise, but I got a bike through this wonderful scheme at work and many of you gave me the motivation to commute to work on it. Since I've got it, about 6 weeks ago now, I have cycled everyday unless it poured down. And it has been a revelation. I, quite simply, love it. I always look forward to it. It clears the fog in my head and lifts my mood, it helps me switch off from some personal problems I have at the moment and it keeps me fit. It has given me body confidence. It makes me feel healthy. I hope I never lose this feeling.

Thank you all

I know the feeling you describe. My bike is my friend :)

What a great post. I've been cycling to work for about 4 years now and feel exactly as you describe.

How lovely - it really does make you feel exhilarated doesn't it!

Good for you

This is a really good reminder that I need to get my bike fixed.
