Up here, there seems to have been a huge increase in bike usage this week. I like to think that it's folk thinking how they'd respond to the shortage of oil that's gonna come in the next few years, rather than it being folk panicking after reading the Daily Wail/Daily Record/ watching the Beeb.....
Anyhoooo.....
I parked my bike this morning next to a bike that had not been there yesterday (I say bike, but it was a 5 speed, dual suspension thing that prob weighed more than me (whether it is/was a worse ride is a different thread, OK?)) There was something odd about it, but I didn't click what it was for a while...
I suddenly realised that the bike had no chain.
So the question arises: how did the bike end up locked to a Sheffield stand with a decent lock?
Elaborate theft prevention?
Or wondering why pedalling doesn't make the bike go faster on the way to work?
Or is there another reason that could explain this that I've missed....
