Thanks Ronnie.

Aren’t bikes wonderful? Love the feeling of being on one.

My dad would cycle to work at C. I. Wilson, Coppersmith’s in Liverpool. Hail, rain, or shine. In the early days he would take the bike on the train from Seaforth and Litherland station, in later days he would cycle all the way. We never had a car. I had the first car in our family in 1979. Hillman Avenger.

In those early years using the train from
Litherland there were often Italian POWs on the train, perfectly accepted by all.

He was cycling to Liverpool to work until he was 70.
