For once I manage to find a cyclist that I can actually catch
and the one I chase down on way out of Wollaton turns out to be girl who, when she
sees me, promptly speeds up in an attempt to evade capture even though it
appears to be practically killing her to do so. Obviously, I’m well used to
this natural female reaction to my presence or perhaps it’s just the natural
reaction of one cyclist to attempt to stay ahead of another cyclist.
When I finally do put her out of her misery, catch and pass
her, she eases off before dropping like a stone into the distance. Clearly
relieved to not have to ride fast any more or perhaps just glad to be free of the
weirdo who was cycling behind her.
Not having seen Daughter for ages since she moved out, two
days ago, she accepts an offer to come round for tea tonight.
