Hi all,
Just signed up as found the site whilst looking for youtube vids on adjusting front deraileurs Ok, so I have moved back up north to where I grew up after a rather sudden personal event and also leaving a very stressful job behind I was at 48 the classic overweight, over drinking, over smoking generally in bad shape kinda guy. A pic at a family gathering shocked me into action and over the last 18 months I have started to change things for the better starting off with a 1/2 mile walk a day. I'm now up to 5m a day @ 4mph but feel I am reaching the max I can achieve
So wots this got to do with cycling. Well over a decade ago I brought a Marin hybrid and having left it in a shed after going to London to find my fortune. I thought it would be good to get it out dust it off and start cycling again. I realise that this is no easy task as it is all up hill round where I live, but from small steps...... actually an taking the same approach as walking will start with a mile
Thanks for letting me in and looking forward to leaning and advancing
