Definite doubts over you being a TrueTyke.

I suppose so but my house isn't really a house as it has wheels.

Cool!

NT and I are doing up his house, it definitely doesn't have wheels, although it does have a small tractor in the hallway....

You need help Phil.

So does that mean you don't fancy a little bike ride in Yorkshire and take in the views

All my brain did was think "What as in whole?"

No, it was in liquid form.

Its very pretty up there but the max elevation i have done is 538 and that nearly killed me.Way too many of them for me.

Weather permitting I'm going back to that set of hills before i go back to work on Wednesday to give myself a stern talking to and attempt to get up them without stopping.

Have the kettle on for me when i get to the top and put the cosy on the pot as i may be a while.

I got told today on my cycle club induction that one should never stop pedalling even when coming downhill.

Dont worry about stopping or even walking just get to the top and keep on doing it that is the only way to improve there are no shortcuts unfortunately

Me and @potsy and @ColinJ have done the Spring into the Dales Audax a few times and that is a proper hilly one. I remember meeting @tubbycyclist on one of those rides, then I met him again on one of @ColinJ rides last year and he was about half the size and fast, I rode to the cafe with him and he was very fast on the hills. He has just done the LEL which is quite amazing considering only 2 years has past it shows what you can do.
