Born to drink mild

H.G. Wells said: “When I see an adult on a bicycle, I do not despair for the future of the human race”. He’d obviously never ridden through Rusholme in the rush hour. Britain’s roads are set to become still more dangerous now (after a 25 year gap) I’ve got a bike (Globe Roll 01 since you ask).  However I am a member of the Tufty Club, got my Cycling Proficiency badge at school (it’s easy on a Chopper) and I solemnly  promise never to wear lycra, but you’ve got fair warning – it’s being delivered next week and them toe clips will be the first things to go (my aged knees probably the second thing).
