I managed to get out on my bike today for a few hours this is the first time I have ridden it and it felt so alien after not riding for 28 years. I managed to get over a tree stump in the middle of the track that I use to get up to the woods. I tried a few wheelies without success but I got better by the end of the day and managed about 5Ft on the back wheel. :P
