I've been fortunate enough to eat a Paris Brest whilst riding the Paris Brest Paris π
Not next year be because it's only run every four years.
2027, though, is another popular jaunt for cyclists: the 1200km Paris Brest Paris. I'd like to have another crack at that.
We have seven of them in Worcestershire

Stopping the event was sad but absolutely the right decision. I was riding through North Yorkshire when storm Floris stuck and conditions were *extremely* hazardous. Tackling the route over the Pennines could easily have resulted one or more of the 2,000+ riders getting killed.

If only I had some substance.
I was hoping the long, grey beard would give the impression of the wisdom of Gandalf...
When I attempted the 1,900km "Race Around The Netherlands" a few years ago I carried about a kilo of porridge oats. I never did manage to eat of it.
But then I did manage to poison myself and fail to finish. Needed an ambulance too, you know.

I've never heard of that...
Corporate, management-level unfortunately.
However, head office is a three hour drive away. So overnight stays on a park bench are a cost-saving option for me.

What do I do about my beard?

* Trim it? (makes me look like Captain Birdseye)
* Do bugger all (aka my "rough sleeper" look as my wife so kindly puts it)
You fail to mention that people also don't feel better off after 14 years of Tory government.
