THE WORLD OF a cyclist is a tough one.
Here’s the worst of it.
1. Setting out for work like this…

… and arriving like this:
2. The sweat
So much sweat.
3. Phantom cycle lanes
I’m here! Oooh, I’m gone! Woooooooo!
4. Also, drivers who believe cycle lanes are a handy place to stop altogether
5. Not being able to wear a skirt
Without treating the population to the sight of your underwear and/or resorting to some kind of technological gimmickry:

6. This
7. Drivers acting like you don’t exist
8. Pedestrians acting like you don’t exist
9. Having to carry your helmet around all day
10. Meeting someone you know on the pavement… as you’re struggling up a steep hill
OH… HI… HOW ARE YOU… BYE.
11. Cycling anywhere in winter
12. And finally, other cyclists.
Breaking red lights, cycling on pavements, generally giving everyone a bad name. Damn you, cyclists.
