You'll find plenty of encouragement here!! Why are you trying to get back into cycling? What's motivating you to start now?

 

[DCLane]

Lots of routes where you are and a pile of CC members.

General health and fitness. I lost around 3 stone a couple of years ago, from 17.5 stone to 14.5 (I wanted to do a parachute jump - highly recommended). I lost it through diet and walking. It's started to go back up again and I wanted to do something a little different for variety. A good friend has recently started an encouraged me.

My first ride was 2 miles (!) and my legs were shaking afterwards. Definitely different muscles from walking. I want to get up to 20 miles or so within the next couple of months.

The Rutland ,Northampshire boarder can get a bit lumpy

 

[RobR]

Was thinking more a drive up and cycle round in all honesty...
