Don't know about you guys but due to the rapid growth of fauna in these parts, my arms and legs get scratched to ribbons whilst riding.....most being unavoidable (although i could carry some saccateurs with me i guess, but thats by the by) Just wondered if any of 'yous' suffer the same problem of having friends/strangers/coleagues/social workers/your grandma ask you if you are having 'problems' or if you self harm or something?

Noriced today at work that some peeps i don't know too well were giving my arms worrying glances. Would probably help if i didnt wear a short sleave, but i did. Because it was hot. Thoughts?

Thoughts, I think everything is relative and I simply don't understand how you could be hot, assuming you're in the UK, with these temperatures, it's bloody freezing my sweet.

They won't think you are normal if you tell them you rode your bike through thorny bushes, may as well let them continue to think what they like.

Badge of honour for those in the know.

Unless you dye your hair black you should be ok fending off the self harm questions.

Yes I have pondered this very question. Do I look like someone who self harms to the man on the street?

Maybe, but unless it is for a job interview or something important, I couldn't give a flying duck.
