From the Dalston Dynamo Manifesto, which link has gone bad so don't bother clicking:
It's that time of year when you’re thinking about Dunwich. Or at least, people are telling you to think about Dunwich. But really, think about Dunwich. Sure, the ride sounds amazing, but isn’t it a lot of work. Won’t it hurt?
This year there’s a solution. The Dalston Dynamo. All the start line camaraderie of Dunwich, but with none of the pain and suffering of riding all that way to a cold, stony beach and waiting two hours for breakfast.

What I am about to say is not going to be popular with at least one of my Top Gear colleagues, but here goes anyway. I'd like to stick up for the bicycle...

Mumsnetter Opossum99 wonders: Am I being unreasonable to think about leaving my husband over a bike?
Possum, I think it's clear that what you're really asking is what bike should you buy with the £1000 your OH has offered to let you spend guilt-free. Conveniently, this amount falls within Cycle to Work scheme limit, which is a further incentive to take that job.
Get yourself a folder. It will come in handy when you visit OH in the doghouse he's sure to eventually wind up in again.
Later on mumsnet…
I pulled out of a road, road was clear and as I crossed the junction heard a bang. Looked in the rear view mirror and saw a bloke and his pushbike on the floor… It shook me up but glad the police saw that it wasnt all my fault. The sun was bright which she put that down to not seeing him too.

Gotta like a post that starts I rode to work yesterday in shorts. I knew the gods would smite my ass today. And so they did.
Also filed under commuting and smiting: It's Not A Race. Covered in the original Browsing thread but so elegantly realised it's worth another plug.
