Uplifting news today. Telephoned an old friend to chat to be told an old(e) timer was still on his bike,still doing his rounds. Still on a road bike!(dropped bars!!)and had come over to just this week to visit her. That 46 good country miles. Make it 50 cos his colleague likes a detour now'n-again. He's 90 but a day. Delighted,I said I saluted him to be told of another cyclist who hadnt been seen for some 3 months who it then turns out had collapsed,gone into hospital,had a pacemaker fitted,and was himself out now cycling on his bike. 90 not out!
Alas,I'm made of less substantial stuff. I am getting out on my bike but the weather and all this covid malarkey has put a downer on me. Then there's aches and pains...and other stuff. Still,its nice to see life in others and that I still have some horizon that has some distance.
Enjoy the day!
