How times change...

Two years ago I used to ride from student home in Liverpool to proper home
in St Helens for driving lessons (lessons started before I moved). Only
twelve miles but it used to take 45 or so minutes, and if I could do it
without stopping at the petrol station halfway for a snack I was impressed.
Did the same ride yesterday in 34 minutes. Good to see all my "training" is
working. Woohoo!

I scraped 16 seconds off my 13-year old "10" time last week, on the same
bike and on a much slower course.

PS - passed driving test two years ago, haven't been in the driver's
seat since.

Good going.

My brother passed his test a long time ago and it must have been almost 10
years before he got back behind the wheel. Scary or what?

Very scary. Can you warn me where your brother lives so I can avoid the
rounds round there?
