A colleague lives by The Meadows. He has a bad back (currently signed off sick). I mentioned doing the TT last wednesday (in the context of no longer being young enough to not creak afterwards) and he mentioned that he would like to take up cycling again but it put too much strain on his back.
I suggested a more laid-back approach, to which he seemed quite amenable and positively inclined as he saw teh laid-back-bikes web site.
So another one may have been snared by the force...
