Your ideas, Noel and Moley, could be the basis and name of a new fell race. All we need is a suitable hill or village beginning with the letter F.

I like the idea, for all bike races held on British soil, ascent/descent measured in fathoms? That should sort Jonny foreigner out, never know where...

Furlongs is the way to go.

Don't scrap the BBC. All is forgiven. I have just watched Top of the Pops - The Story of 1978. A scary and brilliant watch at the same time. ...

According to that reliable source, twitter, there are 11 anti-Meghan stories in today's Daily Mail.

Back on my bike now I have injured my calf yet again, plus the weather is better. Did 38k with 900m up in the forestry - sorry it's metric but that...

First bike ride of the year. 20km on the tandem with Mrs Noel. Great to get out again - lovely conditions.
