Coast to Coast See that little girls bike? The one with no crossbar and painted pink with glitter handlebars? That's your special racing bike that is.

Looks like a wonderful idea, if you walk with a group of friends and not alone to share the wonder. :)

I used to run until my Dr told me to run double the distance. I was alway's ringing up Mr O to come and get me because i had twice as far to walk home.

I wanted to do something that got me slightly out of breath so i smoked more.

Running and bike riding i find difficult. It's so hard not to drop your kebab on route and you keep spilling your beer.
