I came across these two cyclists at the five rise locks in Bingley this morning. They are both butchers who took up cycling on retirement. Phillip (on the left) had a shop in Thackley, which is on the outskirts of Bradford, and Paul had a shop in nearby Idle Village. They had ridden along the canal to Silsden, done a circuit of some of the green lanes around there before stopping off for pork pies on the return journey. At a guess I'd say that's a round trip of maybe twenty five miles, and that's probably more than my son or daughter could manage!
