Charlie during today’s cycling triumph! That’s him riding his bike without his training wheels for the very first time! No problem, no broken bones, not even a skinned knee to show for it. Tomorrow he begins training for the 2025 Tour de France. Watch the video I took with the phone.

60 Years Ago Today…
It was a lovely spring day today, warm sunshine making us forget the winter that only a week ago had us shivering. It would have been the perfect day for a walk on Reigate Hill, but we were all very busy getting ready for our trip next week. It was only when I looked at the logs for ridey.net and saw that someone had come via this google search that I realised I really should have gone up there today of all days, 19 March. I’ll go up to pay my respects tomorrow, come rain or shine.
Protected: Red Nose Charlie!
Gene Therapy
I’m not sure if this commercial has been shown on TV outside the UK (does VW sell Golfs in America?). But it’s fantastic, and I finally found it online, so enjoy Gene Kelly busting some moves. Just don’t ask me how they did it!
