    I hear you mate, i've done abot 2500 :54:

    On a side note,

    People who don't drive (especially, in my line of work) and rely on other people to take them to and from work should be horsewhipped in my opinion :icon_mrgreen:

    You should see it from a BMW driver's point of view.

    It will amaze you how many people get aggressive, squeeze the space up to not let you in, try to race you and generally behave like *, then spout on about typical BMW drivers failing to notice it's their behaviour causing the situation and not the opposite.

    It's amazing the difference in other drivers on the roads attitude towards me when driving my BMW rather than my other car. My driving doesn't change because I'm in a BMW, it's the people around me who seem to have the issues.

    I don't drive but it's starting to bother me. I'm going to book a crash course over the next month or two.

    Blokes that don't drive are commonly known as "gays"

    I don't drive, I'm too good of a co-pilot to drive. If I start driving who's going to start telling my missus how to drive? It's all for the common good, got to look after the missus after all :icon_mrgreen:

    I passed my test a few years ago, but never had enough money to get a car so still been getting the * overpriced scummy Easdales Mcgills buses.

    I cycle almost everywhere. I hate driving - too stressful.

    Had my driving license since I was 18. Test done and dusted as soon as, It was one of those things.
    Had a Vespa since I was 16 and thought the world of it still pondering chucking it right enough with the weather and that.

    I can drive but don't have a licence. My missus has been driving from 17. I always get chauffeured by her. No stress! And I also enjoy walking.:50:

    If you live in a city or any area with heavy traffic then I think cycling's the best way to get about. Good for environment, your health/fitness and quicker than most public transport due to being able to pass red lights, go on paths/ shortcuts etc...

    Ditto. Never driven or owned a car, nor felt the need to.

    Love cycling every day, especially when sailing past all the grumpy faced drivers sitting in 'traffic' at rush hour :bbpd:
