There's nothing more scary than being followed closely by a police motorbike for ten minutes

Don't think I did anything wrong, wasn't speeding or leaning heavily. The only thing I could think of was that someone objected to me filtering and tried to close the gap but I wasn't inconvenienced.
It was like being back on my test again!

Right, going to see if I'm sober enough to ride the motorbike to the butchers...

Whats your age graded % like though?Originally posted by mudskipper View PostYep, they're very friendly - doesn't matter if you're doing 15 minutes or 45. Been going regularly, but still not made 30 minutes.
Aiming for my 50 T-shirt in the spring.

Was good fun though and the group aspect helps to keep the speed up. I even managed a personal best for 5km

Parkrun this morning (wet!)
Then generally trying to get stuff sorted - house a tip, cards not written, and no idea what's been delivered and what hasn't.
Tomorrow I've volunteered to be a marshall at a 'Jingle Jog', which is also looking like it's going to be pretty wet.
