    My husband sprung it on my last night that he's divorcing me. I haven't left the bed, let alone made it to work. No bike commute for awhile. But he told me he plans on taking the car, so I guess I'll be biking everywhere. Not sure how to do that with a 112 pound dog...

    Ouch. Get out of bed and call a lawyer. Now. Sympathy will come later. Now you have to act.

    Riding will help you sort this out.
    Like Tulip said, get a lawyer, get out of bed, and get on your bike!

    Holy cow!
    So sorry to hear about that. Definitely get a lawyer and get on that bike to ride out some of this sadness/anger/confusion. My best thinking is on my bike, and it sounds like you have a lot of thinking to do.

    Wow, I can only imagine how you feel (actually I have been through a separation with my own husband years ago, but we ended up reconciling.) What is important is to take care of yourself. Do get on your bike and ride, it is good therapy. Sending out ((((hugs))))!
    Get on your bikes and ride!

    @ kcmpls - so very sorry to hear about what happened.. keep your chin up sweetie..
    When the spirits are low, when the day appears dark, when work becomes monotonous, when hope hardly seems worth having, just mount a bicycle and go out for a spin down the road, without thought on anything but the ride you are taking.
