AIBU Coast to Coast bike ride...

[yorkshirebubbles]

My DH and I were asked by friends to join them on the coast to coast cycle ride in January.

DH was pretty keen straight away to participate, no problem with that. I on the other hand have some health issues (EDS 3 and fibromyalgia) so it wasn't something I really expected to be able to do physically. I agreed with DH I'd do some training and see how I felt.

Unfortunately my health took a turn for the worse and I'm now being treated for chronic fatigue syndrome. There is no way I can do this bike ride.

This issue is the group are wanting to book accomodation now and are asking if I'll act as a support vehicle.

So essentially I'll have to take two days annual leave to follow them round in the car with their luggage.

The rest of the time I'll be on my own with nothing to do. I've said to DH tonight that I have no interest in doing this, that I perhaps wouldn't have minded if I was able to cycle part of the route but acting as support vehicle seems like an expensive and boring way to use some of my annual leave.

DH has said that he thinks this is 'shitty' of me abd won't discuss it beyond that.

AIBU to pull out of the weekend altogether before anything is booked?

catsofa the dozen or so who did my DH's trip weren't necessarily 'wimps' but they were doing it to raise money for charity and so not proper cyclists in that sense of the word. They did it in torrential rain and storms, really grim weather and I think that the vehicle was a great physiological support more than anything.

This was still in April though not January!!

Yabu... It's 2.5 days, your DH is saying that he'd miss seeing you, he would really love to see you at the end of the long day and have you join with his friends in evenings. I think you're being a being pants, tbh. Bring a good book & try all the cafes (with Wifi).
