I'm not sure where this thread is headed, nor if we need it any longer.
I hope Andy and Mrs Stoney have a marvellous life, and achive everything they wish for. And I will love to see them again, zooming past me, if they choose to come back.
But I have slept on MSV Regalia in deepest Africa, and it is not appropriate here.
I'm quitting..

Oh well fella, horses for courses but I hope you'll return to biking. I met you once at Cadwell so I hope we'll cross roads again in the future. Not that I will recognise your new slim physique.
As for this running thing. I use to be good at the middle distances but rugby knackered my knees and ankles. Nowadays I limit myself to cycling and playing squash with some flexibility exercises in the morning to keep me straight. Does you good to be fit when riding motorcycle and I feel the benefits especially on track days. Better stamina, coordination, awareness and balance. Makes you feel good as well.
Enjoy it. Exercise will add life to your years and years to your life to quote the Telegraph. See you some time.

'Let me check my concernometer.'
I'm locking this thread - I think the reasons for doing so should be obvious. Andy's come to a decision, basing that decision on feelings and circumstances that are personal to him, and we should all respect that. I feel that the vast majority of us have done so and I've no doubt Andy will be grateful.
However, chipping in with snide, inflammatory remarks isn't what we're about on this forum so to put the minds at rest of those who've pm'd me about it, further behaviour of this sort will not be tolerated. If one doesn't have anything constructive to say (especially when they're tantamount to getting personal) then don't say it.
Thanks all.
