Turbo talk

I've got out of the habit of rambling into my phone and recording wee videos while I'm out on cycle rides, but I thought it might be a good idea to keep a record of this year's experiences during the build up to Cycle Africa in October. I don't think I'll be appearing on any red carpets any time soon though...

Story 17: or, should that be, Poem 1...

Yesterday was National Poetry Day and, after reading some lovely poems, I was inspired to jot down a ditty of my own. My new found passion for cycling - and my strong belief that the path to contentment lies in doing what feels right for you and not what other people tell you is right for you - provided the inspiration! I've recorded me reading it out loud as, like most of my ditties (I feel like a bit of a fraud calling them poems...), it's better heard than read. It's just a bit of fun really (just like my cycling) so I hope you enjoy it:
