To be fair not cycling probably only knocks a couple of years off your life whereas smoking probably knocks about 10 years off.
Not always

I can beat you there. Last time i rode a bike i was 8. I'm in my mid 50s now. Not sure i i can still ride a bike after all these years.
I could manage an exercise bike though.0 -

It's really sad. There are so many people who could lead happier, healthier, longer lives by bicycle commuting. Instead they choose the early death option and sit around in metal boxes with wheels, moaning about the traffic. Their noxious gas emmissions poison everyone leading to thousands more early deaths.0

I can't see how I could commute on a bike as I work from home.
I rode a bike last year on holiday for the first time in 25 years. The previous time I was hit by a car not pulling out far enough to overtake me, wing mirror swiped my hip and took me off.
It'll probably be 25 years (if I'm granted that long) before I get on a bike again.Make £2024 in 2024
