Blog resurrection

This blog, rather like me in many ways, has laid dormant since the end of my Lands End to John O'Groats ride in 2010 but now, like the proverbial Phoenix, it rises again.  This is largely because I've got some exciting stuff planned over the next year or so; chief amongst which is a cycling the 3-Peaks challenge. At present I am woefully unprepared for tackling this in the planned 4 days but hey, I've got the best part of a year to get myself in better shape for it and the preparation will be a great excuse to spend loads more time on the bike and in the hills. Tally Ho.
