Hello all!

[333]

38 year old dad here trying to get back into cycling after a 16 year break from road racing and time trials, sold all my old kit (doh) therefore currently only have a Mtb but hey its a start right! Goals are just to get fit for now but I'd be lying if I said I don't want to try a road race or time trial but not thinking about that right now.

Going to start doing some short rides this week and eventually invest in a turbo trainer.

Thanks

I got back into it for fitness after several years of ill health - I'm doing really well!

Hello and welcome. Put the money for the turbo towards a new road bike!

Hey all

Thanks for the welcome!

So it looks like I may be able to get my new road bike through the C2W scheme (cycle to work) what do you guys think of the Dolan L'etape? it's the only carbon I can get for my height!! seems decent though from what I can find via Google

Originally I wanted a Ribble but nevermind!

I dont think Cycling ever leaves your blood, even after long lay ups, when you get your bike out the buzz is always there.
Enjoy.
