It's a good couple of miles, and besides I have not riden the thing for years.

That Penny Farthing happens to be a Specialized Rockhopper, complete with uprated Shimano XT gearset and Brakes!

See I can't help it, what ever I have I have to mod it!

Not sure if i'll still fit into my lycra gear, or indeed if it would be a good idea for the public if I did!

Oh Dear, Andrea thinks this is a good idea!

I've printed off a map, a gentle 12 miles to start, virtually all off road, Fri or Sat?

Do you think she's trying to tell you something?

I think something a little shorter might be needed as my 'Bits' might still need a little relaxation time...

Spally, don't be put off....
This wasn't a track day but a race. You wouldn't be pushing that hard, or overtaking on a bend.
This guy was pushing to the limits of the car and a little further.....
Not something you see on a track day.......
