Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
I'm back home, my Good Lady is being kept in for a couple of days for investigation and treatment with antibiotics.


Mrs D does seem to have been in the wars over the last few day.

A small survey/questionaire for us old farts if you dont mind indulging me (pretty please).
Its just something that interests me.

1. How old are you. Specific/approx or
feel free to ignore this one.
2. When did you get into cycling
3. What sort of distance do you ride in
good weather (thats in one ride).

I will start.
1. I am 72
2. I got into it some 8/10 years ago
3. In good weather I enjoy 30-40 milers.
I have done more but after 35 my
neck aches, as does my bum.


1. I'll be 70 in 4 months hint hint
2. When I was about 10
3. In good weather 40- 60 miles. 70- 80 on a freezing cold FNRttC :smile:
