Don't worry, Mark, children admire me. Just today I found myself among a group of boys about 10 years old cycling down the big hill in Greenwich Park. They were pedalling like Billy Whiz to get down as fast as they could, while I freewheeled down. I still got down there first :o) At the bottom of the hill one of them looked up at me admiringly and said "You're really fast, mister". I gave him the distal phalanges up.
