There’s a lot going on. I caught up on TGO stuff and as I did the last few shots of my best-in-test trail runners I got a ping for the preview link to let me see the April issue so I found a wind-free corner to have a cuppa and a read and it’s just brilliant, I can’t wait to share it properly when it’s out.
