Heading home after about 50 miles today back along the A48, just outisde of Cardiff a car overtook me and the kid in the backseat leant out the window and shouted
"Helloooooo!!!!!"
I just grinned back, and decided to try and keep up with the car- kept up until the lights and the kid shouted-
"wow you're really fast!"
I smiled and for the next 5 miles across most of Cardiff on the A48, I peged it to try and keep up with this car while the kid in the back shouted encouragement and looked very impressed. Unfortunately at the end, on a long flat bit where all the lights were green, the car accelerated to 35mph and started to pull ahead of me, I sprinted after it but couldn't keep up. So i eased off, shrugged my shoulders and waved bb to the kid.
He looked quite sad and leaned out saying "byeee"
Had a smile on my face all the way back home,
He was only about 8 and I was dead chuffed at being called very fast.
Small kids- awwwwwwwww

Can we fix it?
