There’s been no common sense used during this exercise session.

So it is ok to break the rules if you use common sense

 

It was safer than going to the supermarket or the offy, which we all do

Not sure what the issue is 

I came into contact with no one, even the guys at city were 10 metres away when they said clear off

Common sense, matey 

You break whatever rules you like

How does it work then? I know of people who go to work with other people because it's allowed 

Other than my household I've not been near anyone else in weeks, other than down the shops 

Covid can't catch you if you're on a bike

Common sense. What happens If you was to have had an accident on your bike?

I'd ring the Mrs and ask her to pick me up 

Anything more serious could happen 2 miles down the road just as it could 10 

My conscience is clear

You probably didn’t tbf. Do you think you bent/broke the rules?

No more than if I'd stayed strictly within the boundaries of Stockport and did laps amounting to 25 miles

That’s deflecting. And you know it. Fuck all to do with anyone what you do. But you clearly broke the rules and are doing what others have/are doing which you’ve criticized their thinking/excuses of common sense/haven’t endangered anyone ? Unless I’m mistaken?

No it's not 

I could stay within a mile of home tomorrow and go the the supermarket, off license, Costa, McDonalds etc all in the name of essentials 

Some folk will put themselves at a far greater risk going to work 

I've never criticized anyone for doing anything deemed essential and have always said do what you have to but proceed with caution 

It makes no difference if i ride to Manchester or Stockport and back, same distance, one is local, one isn't

Because they’re going to work and in many cases likely to be essential workers.

They’re not cycling to football grounds to compare floodlights

One is within the rules one isn’t. You may disagree with the rules. I do too. So it makes a huge difference if you choose to break them. No different than anyone else doing it.

So how far is too far when it comes to riding a bike? 

When i get to the bottom of my road, Cheshire is 1 mile away if i go left, Manchester is 2 if i go straight on and the centre of Stockport (where i live) is 4 if i go right
