Hi all,
Well what can i say? I have been into cycling for about a year now. as a child i tooted about on bikes, as a teen an knocked about on a bmx. as i discovered beer, fags and girls i never really looked at pedal power. in my 20's i got fat and lazy with additional 'issues' so i decided with getting married and the birth of my daughter to get my act together, shed a few kg's and leave the car at home.
Well what a difference - i've lost 5kg, have moved on career wise and i am a genrally much happier balanced idividual, in fact a new person. life on a bike is AMAZING! i can't belieive how much it has changed my life.
I am currently commuting 4 out of 5 days a week (4.5miles each way) and going for a casual 20ish mile ride most weekends . I have got myself the lovely new Trek 7.3 on BTW. i am now looking to up my game, shed the rest of my weight, imporve fitness and get into longer rides, touring etc.
Can anybody recomend routes around Harrogate North Yorkshire? and/or cycling groups?
I look forward to using this forum, most i've seen have been a bit daunting!
Peace
