Hi All, posting from Hamilton, Scotland

[Booyaa]

Quick post to say hello, I'm from Hamilton and am quite new to the forum. Due to past health issues (involving brain surgery) I am able to get back to cycling and due to health issues (being hellishly overweight) I need to get back to cycling. I will be commuting once I get a acceptable level of control and fitness back.

Will be travelling about 12 miles from home to work, due to life pressures, kids etc, will be doing it probably once a week. Starting off on a hybrid, no way a road bike would hold me up just now, long term plan is to get a road bike again once I have shed a few pounds (stones actually!).

Looking forward to interacting with you all.

Boyyaa!
My first non commuting bike ride ever (only a few months ago) was from my bit (Rutherglen) to Hamilton races (where I'd been before, taking the train).
I had spent weeks planning that 10 mile ride, for fear of getting lost, silly me.
