Ever since i started my new job, I haven't had any time to get to the gym. By the time i finish work and make it back home, i've missed all the classes that i'm interested in going to. And after dinner etc, it's about 7-7.30 and by that time, all I want to do is relax and do nothing. $50 each month going to waste :S
So, i've decided (and i'm not sure if i'll do it! ehhe) that i'm going to become one of those annoying road users - yes people, im going to see if i can *cycle* to work. teehee. It's not a far distance - approximately 7km each way - so i would get a good amount of exercise each day if i did it. Some of my workmates also cycle to work so I know it can be done.
My only concern is whether I *have* to cycle on the road. I know i'm going to be slow , and I'm petrified of being honked at, or worse, clipped by a passing car and killed in the process *eek* so I wanted to cycle on the foot path.
So, my question now is .. Is it compulsory for cyclists to ride on the road? Can I ride on the footpath ? [ Looks at those people that work for the transport departments, and at the lawyers out there!]
