No apologies necessary Rockin. It would be ace if something comes back from freecycle for you. A free bike is better than no bike

I know exactly what you mean about extreme temperatures affecting your asthma. I have asthma and copd which are affected by the cold, high humidity, the wind and exercise too. Cycling is my way of keeping the 50% lung function I have left and I do feel my lungs are being less affected by the things that usually affect them with the more miles I put in. I hope that when you get a bike you experience the same improvement with your asthma.
