Perusing the latest Rouleur - this is the £10/copy cycling magazine that The Fellrunner aspires to emulate for fell running - I noticed an article on Belgian Trappist beers such as Trappistes Rochefort 10 at 11.3% - so beer you don't get in Wetherspoons for 0.99p a pint. Well I like a couple of Leffe myself although even at only 6.6% two or three of those and I am anybody's.
But, you may ask, what is the link between a cycling porn magazine and beer? Well the Belgian spring cobbled classics of course! Keep up!
Anyway it did make me wonder ifThe Fellrunner is a bit too focused on...well, fellrunning?
The same issue of Rouleur also has an article with the title Do You Remember The First Time? So you can sense what I am saying about broadening the focus?
Now of course there are some fell races with cobbles but it's not quite Ronde van Vlaanderen (Tour of Flanders) now is it?
So all I wish to do is to encourage any aspiring writer contemplating yet another article on fell racing on Pendle to just broaden their thinking a little. Perhaps Petrus and Pendle? Surely someone can make a connection?
