Cycling in Melbourne Australia
Cyclists suck.
Last monday, did my usual trundle home from work and all was right with the world. Come the evening, I was all wobbly and remain so. Benign positional vertigo, apparently. What it amounts to is one of the little doodads buried in your head that tell you which way up you are gets stuck, giving the impression that you're in constant motion. The upshot is ongoing wooziness, pronounced klutzery, inability to stop turning corners and so on. Not condusive to bike-riding obviously, so I've been catching trains to and from work and speaking as a public-transport user, I find that all cyclists are smug bastards and I hate you all.
Until a week or two has passed, my somewhat psychedaelic state has improved, and I'm back in the saddle again of course. Can't believe I'm missing this weather.

I understand what you're saying; those that don't ride to work have a screw loose (or a stuck doodad)... wishing you a speedy road to recovery. That's all from me, I need to check my parentage before I get back to the smugness.

Benign positional vertigo sucks. My sympathies, I'll try to stay unsmug until you're recovered. I certainly understand your jealousy.

*Blows raspberry*
You'll get over it in due course/time, I had a dose of vertigo last year & it sucked mighty.

Wishing you a speeeeedy recovery, Trundelbug.
There is too much hate in the world, and much of that towards us poor maligned cyclists, and so I cannot accept your hatred as a "normal" condition, particularly when your judgement is obviously impaired from your psychedelic state.
