A bicycle for travel? Not having it (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

celibacy

'not having it' is the definition.
('it' can mean sex)

'a bicycle for travel?' is the wordplay.
'for travel?' indicates anagramming the letters (letters travelling around).
'a'+'bicycle'='abicycle'
'abicycle' with letters rearranged gives 'CELIBACY'.

(Other definitions for celibacy that I've seen before include "Unmarried state on a bicycle" , "Abstention from the other" , "nothing personal!" , "requirement for RC priest" , "Abstaining from sex" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
