2016 highlight of the year
I went surfing in Portugal, I rode through the Brecon Beacons and Snowdonia National Park in Wales, I completed my first DGR ride through London Town and I fixed a leaking tap with a swiss army knife.
prediction for 2017
2016 was a throwaway year where the media indulged in reminding us all how divided we are, I'd like 2017 to focus on what unites us and eating good cheese.
