"I did what I had to, I had no money but I had to meet her. I was cycling for love, but never loved cycling. It's simple."

Not sure I get you. Reunited with woman he loved and had a family. Still happy 40 years later.

Sounds good to me.

Yeah, I must be missing something too: Sounds like "happily ever after" to me.

Was it that he got a train from Vienna rather than cycle that's disappointing?

She's a tight arse. Swedish nobility and would tbuy him a plane ticket?

Maybe he gave her the clap after all the birds he must have shagged on the way.

It is a bit baffling why she didn't buy him a plane ticket.

Maybe it was a test, or simply going Dutch. "If you can get to Vienna, I'll buy you a rail ticket for the rest".

So far in life, I've only been involved with only one woman* I'd cycle more than 30 minutes for...

We're doing the whole family thing but have another 26 years to go on the being together as long! 🙂

*That's not a dig at women BTW, I'm pretty sure I would be as bad at selecting male partners if I was gay...
