After 20yrs of 24hr a day shift work I now only work shifts between 7am and 11pm.

I now live less than 10 miles from work.

I've found a route which allows me to travel 90% on tow paths and cycle routes thereby avoiding road traffic and the associated dangers of roads.

It costs me £70+ to fill the car.

The cycle2work scheme lets me buy a £700 bike for less than £400, the money comes out of my salary, I'll barely notice it.

I'm a geek who likes techno things.

I've got two discs out in my back and femoral nerve dysfunction so the extra push from electric will help.

Due to above my consultant told me to do no exercise, that's fine for him to say I was swimming up to 5 miles a week last year.

It costs me £70+ to fill the car. Did I say that.

I will be the only person I know who's got one.

After a week of commuting in the car the computer in the car said I averaged 19mph.

It costs me £70+ to fill the car.
