In 2012, at the age of 48, he won a 12 hour race, covering 317.97 miles. In 2011 he won a 24 hour race with a distance of 541.17 miles. I think that this puts into perspective some of the distances that we bikers cover.Mike , what kind of saddle does he have on his bike, if I go round the on my push bike I am in agony.

As you say that would put most of us to shame.
The Wirral basically started of the revival of British cycling, my next door neighbour from years ago was non other than Chris Boardman. I bought an apartment from him a few years back and still have it.
