When the tube strike was looming I decided to take action beforehand. Instead of waiting hours for a bus, or walking miles to work, I decided to look to buy a bike.
I looked up used bicycles for sale and managed to find loads which were in good condition and at a reasonable price.
The realisation of waking up and not having a nightmare of a journey cheered me up in the morning of the strikes. I managed to hop on my bike and enjoy (for once) the journey to work – hassle free!
I have now opted to cycle into work a lot more. I can’t promise I will be doing it everyday in the winter when it is cold and icy, but I will be at the moment. And as a bonus it will be keeping me fit and healthy!
