Mission

Homage to fromage

1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Bristol.

I kicked off this mission on the good old Bristol to Bath path. Pedaling around performing missions on two-wheels has reaffirmed my long-held belief that cycling is actually a superpower. Feeling 100% with the wind in my hair and some relatively new bar tape I hit up St George to help Mr R get his camembert cheese and vanilla ice cream fix. There were some other items on his shopping list but he was particularly emphatic about the camembert.. 

Parked the bike and headed towards the bright lights of Tesco to see what I could find. Having aged a year in the queue I successfully navigated the complex one way system which was confusing everyone - No-one more so than the poor security guard tasked with herding hungry shoppers around the aisles.

Made it out of tesco and sped off to deliver Mr R's ice cream before it melted en route. Special shout out to Mr Rs neighbor who kindly pointed me in the right direction after Mr Rs exact address seemed to mysteriously disappear from google maps!
