The Old Bloke

Here's an interesting and informative site by Elwyn Jordan, that I've been following for a few years.  It's aimed at the more "mature" riders.
There's lots of good stuff, which will keep you interested for ages  :popcorn

Excellent find.  Heaps of reading there.   Thanks for sharing!
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
