I'm keeping the f*ck away from the Lakes at weekends for a while. That doesn't mean that midweek trips are off the radar. Tomorrow for example ;-)

Thanks ff and a very sensible approach NE. I don’t think I’ll be in Haworth on Saturday or Sunday either

the accounts that Mike has of the 3 round attempt are horrific, in some ways it sounds like passing out close to the top of Snowdon and really not being able to be awoken for 45 mins was not the worst of it! Adding the cycling in too. Wow....

I think the bit that most scary to me is the idea of riding a bike in amongst our cyclist friendly (i.e. they like getting up close and up with cyclists!) driving population when your faculties and reactions are seriously dimmed.

that should have been "up close and personal with cyclists"

Enjoy NE, that's a proper retirement celebration :)

The cycling bits don't bare thinking about - I hope he has some decent road support and people who know to plot the routes this time!

Off to read the blog, looking to see if there was one was on my to do list for this evening anyway :)

They look okay NE but not a patch on the Magnums we had from the Jet garage in Keighley last week

Yes, the cloudbase was a bit low yesterday .....
