Always cycled in my youth, then got out of the habit, moving on to motorbikes. Gave that up when I had kids.
A year or so later my monthly travelcard went up over £100, and I thought ‘this is bonkers. I’m sure I could cycle if I tried.’ So I got an old Dawes off ebay for about half the cost of my monthly card. Halfway to work on my first day, I pulled up at some traffic lights and realised I was smiling. ‘Should’ve done this years ago,’ I thought. I’ve never looked back since.
