In my previous scribbling, I wrote about a cycle ride that I took part in on Sunday. With the exception of my mate Peter with whom I went, I had not made the acquaintance of any of the other riders. It seems I have been drawn into a number of other rides with them and that we are already comrades in arms, on the road. How quickly one becomes a willing participant in a cycling fraternity and quick to join in other organised rides. I have already registered for a "Mad March" sportive and feel sure that other similar adventures will manifest as time passes and especially as the climate improves past March 2013.
I have decided that any previous reluctance to do more than just ride locally, as I have done for the last few years, will not do, it is time to stop reading about these different events and take part in them. I am 60 years young in 7 days, so could there be a better juncture to embark on such adventures. I may fall flat on my face and find I am unable to always complete some events but I am bloody well going to give it a go!
