Gonna ride my bike

Since the snow hit London just before Christmas, I've been neglecting my bicycle. I used to ride into work every day, come rain or shine but I've fallen into a routine of getting the train instead. It's only three stops on the Metropolitan line so you must be thinking how lazy I am but nothing could be further from the truth. I love riding my bike. It gives me a sense of freedom and speed which nothing else does. So what's the problem?

Well. My front gears don't engage, my chain is stretched and the pedals spin when starting off (potentialy family jewel damaging) and feels like shit on all but three gears (four if I'm lucky) and my rear tyre has a slow flat.

Conclusion: I need to get my bike fixed.
