About Allan B
I also like to walk outdoors, which is a pastime that has evolved since doing the Duke of Edinburgh's award scheme (Bronze, Silver & Gold) as a teenager. Although I can still push the occasional peaks & mountain trail, my preference is now the less strenuous heritage and themed trails that tend to be based around permanent or travelling exhibits in our towns, cities & surrounding woodlands.
Happy cycling & walking. Allan :-)
