I’m currently typing this
I’m currently typing this with one hand after flying over my handlebars and breaking my shoulder. Getting back on my bike seems a long way off at the mo and certainly not the healthiest pursuit in the world. But, after 25 years of riding, one serious accident doesn’t seem too bad.

I can’t wait to get back to it live well past 100! B-)
