Default Privelage Days Off Work for Biking Weather

Hi Guys & Gals,

What do you reckon. I'm sitting at my desk staring out at the Sun wishing i was on my bike for a long ride. Took my bike to work but sitting (I mean Filtering ) in traffic does have some bad points.

I think us bikers should be allowed time off with full pay to enjoy our spring / summer months to enjoy the biking season before we start wrapping ourselves or the bikes up for the depressing Winter Season.

Thanks

JT

Of course there should also be days off for car drivers too, providing they meet the following conditions:

1) The sun must be shining
2) The tarmac must be dry
3) The cager must not drive his car anywhere I might want to ride my motorbike

Parked my van up this evening and went for a spot of tea on a nice little trip.

But i reckon we should get 2 days off a year to make up for smokers having fag breaks.

I'm currently having to give one of our directors a lift to and from work as she's pulled her calf muscle.

While I get her car and fuel card in the evening and at weekends, I'm missing two motorcycle trips a day, Bummer!
