Well thank you everyone. I celebrated my three score years and ten by taking the Tracer out for a ride. The idea floated into my brain that it would be fitting to "do the ton" to prove I'd still got it in me, however, as this idea materialised on the B4214 between Tenbury Wells and Clifton on Teme, a twisty road of uncertain surface, I settled for 75 which I felt was good enough.

Done! I actually retired this time last year but then ended up doing consultancy work before thinking:

 

"I don't need to be doing this, I've enough to live on and there's a lot of roads still to ride....so I chucked it all in, best thing I ever did."


Maybe retread instead.

 

Nothing left to retread Rob
