I've really noticed a big rise in the number of mamils on the road
When I'm out for an amble, five years ago you'd meet the odd bike once in a while. These days at the weekend I'll usually be passed by two or three packs of ten-plus as well as the odd single/couple. It's been really noticeable and I guess British success in the sport is responsible.
