Forgot to mention that I went under the name of Ian, the guy with the fuzzy hair. Although I'm a bit ancient now, I wouldn't mind recreating a bit of the old magic by whizzing around Herne Hill track, now that the Paddington Rec caters only for cricket. It seems only yesterday that I was sprinting against Nick F and going on club runs with Geoff C, Pete S, Bruce W, Paul "Italian Stallion" D, Barry F, Carlo B and Paul R.
Recently I was living in Asia, mostly Malaysia where I rediscovered the joys of youth on a mountain bike around Langkawi and Penang, cooling off under waterfalls and avoiding monkeys that looked a bit menacing as I cycled past. Superb fun. I thought I was Eddy Merckx until a woman cycled effortlessly past me.
