Lol........I wish. Just a cycle I'm afraid. Furthest I've ever run was a marathon way back 20 years ago. Not sure I have another in me these days.

Sat in Wedges in the Earlswood Plant Centre with a coffee and a tea cake, It's been an enjoyable ride out, cool and grey, but not too windy.

Bit of googling.
In 1943 Jim Wedge arrived at the bakery. He had been baking since the age of 12. The bakery was named Wedges and is still as popular now as it has ever been. The bakery still uses techniques employed by the original bakers to create the delicious baked goods you can buy today.
In the early 1970’s Jim sold Wedges to Tom Griffiths. The bakery then continued with Tom and his family until 2013 when it was acquired by Heptinstall Holdings.
Most I managed was half marathons in 8 minute miles.
Started to get lots of pain at side of knees so went to the Docs who said "thats ligamitus, pack i running".
I thought, no way, so paid to go private.
The specialist said "thats ligamitus, pack in running"
Had a walk around Bradbury Rings - 800 BC Iron Age hill fort
Then a walk up to Horton Tower, a folly built in 1750.
Then on Knowlton church - an early Norman church built on the site of a Neolithic (2500 BC) fort.
Ended up at the Drovers Arms and it was full of creaky old cyclists!
Back to the van for an afternoon nap now, before we get the barbie on later.
The weather has been fantastic - perfect temperature and a gentle breeze.

Do I dye my beard or not? I think not, but Mrs J says she didn't marry Uncle Albert.
