Remember when I lived in Beeston and National Cycle Route 6 went right past my front door? Well, now I'm in Redditch it's a whole different ball game. Now I work in an office that's on Route 5, so while the weather's nice, I'm going to have to spend some time exploring its twists and turns! I've already been down to Alcester, and up to Birmingham (via the short-cut route 55 that avoids going via Bromsgrove), I think tomorrow I'll go to Stratford-upon-Avon, and see if Shakespeare's still there.
The route goes all the way to Reading, where I'm actually planning to go next month, but I probably won't cycle the whole 90 miles or so. In the other direction it ends up in Holyhead (and has to stop there because otherwise you'd end up in the sea), which might be a fun place for a holiday. I should really get my brakes fixed before I do too much more biking, but on the other hand it does get me where I'm going all the quicker...

Are you referring to a bicycle or a motorbike?
Pedal-bike! I'm not some kind of Hell's Angel. I used to be, back when I was young and went around on a Honda C-90, but that was a long time ago now...
Oh, a pedal-bike! I was unaware of your previous involvement with the Hell's Angel organization. I hope your brakes get fixed, and you do not leave many skidmarks!
