I needed a fast road ride today so though I would pay a quick visit to Adrian Timmis’s new shop in Barton under Needwood. Specializing in higher end road bikes and particularly bike fit, CadenceSport’s new premises are very swish being an ex kitchen showroom. Ada has added some tour memorabilia and of course the de rigor 42 inch plasma on the wall for watching the action unfold.
The journey there was quite amusing, I came up to a couple of fairly long slow moving traffic jams. I edged to the front twice to find a steam roller, complete with caravan in tow, Fred Dibnah style. The smell was fantastic and looked so right chugging through the old villages of Kings Bromley and Yoxall. I later noticed a sign for a steam rally near Barton, they had a long way still to go!
