    A tour round Harewood House and grounds but by road so, all in all, 33 miles (1400feet). So 65 miles so far this week!

    I came home past Wheelbase Ilkley - not a shop I patronise because they don't sell Bianchi - it's more for people who buy Pinarello.

    It appears that someone tried to drive a pick-up truck or something into the shop because half of the glass wall is missing and there are huge concrete blocks in front of where the door used to be.

    Talking of Pinarello, the shop has knocked £2500 off some epitome of overpriced mechanical pornography on display in the window. The retail price was £12,000 so although £2500 sounds a lot it is only a 20% discount.

    One would think, since Pinarello are in the fashion business, that a discount of 80% would be more in line with expectations. It's what I expect when I buy my new LBD during the sales.
