Apparently I'm not a pro cyclist.
When I was in New York, I took my bike everywhere for transportation. I didn't have a fixed-gear bicycle, like a lot of the messengers do, but I had a stripped-down deal - having lost a few good ones in New York - and I did 10 to 15 miles a day just getting around the city.
My bike is my gym, my wheelchair and my church all in one. I'd like to ride my bike all day long but I've got this thing called a job that keeps getting in the way.

I think cycling has always had a tradition of being a bit dapper, especially back in the day.
I find buying a bicycle is a great way to stay in touch with people.
You forget things like how accessible the city is, I bought a bike - I haven't had a bike in twenty years.
I spent a couple of months just riding a bike doing my own training in the streets.

A bicycle has transformed my experience of London.
