Timmy Mallett - Cycling round Britain

[ianrauk]

Yes, that annoying twerp Timmy Mallett.
Except, many of you may not know, he's a fervent cyclist. Currently on a cycling journey round Britain since March.
His twitter feed is pretty good.
Fair play to him

But is he pausing or hesitating?

Good on him.

I'd really like to do that, just the time to commit to it

He was round my neck of the woods a week or so back, I passed him on my way to work on the Saturday morning, shouted "Ride On Timmy" & waved, but he just looked confused

Good on him, and no mean feat, he's 67 this year, can paint a bit too.

So what? Hitler and Churchill were too, Ronnie Wood paints too & millions of others, yet, oddly enough, none of them are Timmy Mallet

If I was 67yrs old and riding around Britain I would also look confused..

The fact that somebody is a cyclist doesn't make them a better person.

Bernie Ecclestone raced as a youngster and so did Bruce Reynolds of Great Train Robbery fame.

And we must not forget Oscar Savile, who rode the 1948 Tour of Britain.

Still has no relevance to the original post - just because he was annoying as an entertainer has no bearing on what this post is about
