Like the style Plum; 63 myself and riding the fastest, best handling machine I've ever owned (upright bars of course) - my riding seems to get smoother with age which gives me hope that I can get below two minutes for a lap of Cadwell before I hang up my leathers.
I remember taking the dog for a walk. Passed by my local and saw a mate sat outside. He greeted me with "Isn't it crap getting old?". Turned out it was his 40th birthday. Went in pub and rang wife up (no mobile phone then) and told her to bring some money down (no handy ATM or facility to use a card in our in those days) and take dog home. Then proceeded to join my mate in getting inebriated to dull the pain of getting old. That was 27 years ago.
In the boozer last night drowning our sorrows, a woman came round selling scratch cards for Dove house. So we all got one. None of us could see the ****ing things we scratched off. Is that a bell or a cherry... It was only when my mates lad came in did we know if we'd won or not. We didnt
Nah I've never been a marathon runner Did the national 3 peaks (Ben Nevis, Scarfell and Snowden) in 18 hours 45 mins. Included over 11 hours driving (the drivers didn't climb) which as good as I could have hoped. Really enjoyed it, and we jogged up and down Ben Nevis in just over 2 and a half hours which I was pleased with. I was about a year after major knee surgery though and found Scarfell hard work on the way down ...and several tattoos, which is far less energetic!
Have you tried the Yorkshire 3 peaks? Quite demanding but you don't need to be super-fit or particularly young!
When out for a meal yesterday, picked up the menu and passed it to the kids, just pick something for me. I really need to take my glasses with me.
