Hello from sunny Exmouth (Devon)!
Name's Paddy and I've been back to riding since last year. I raced XC MTB for a few years back in the early/mid 90's, then it all went south when beer/cars/girls arrived on the scene.
I got back to cycling last year mainly just for some excercise after damanging my back and finding it's one of the few things I seem to be able to do for any length of time without my back playing up.
I still regularly ride my 1995 Klein mtb although the majority of my riding these days is road and to that end I bought myself a Trek 1.2 last year to see if I'd take to a road bike. I have to say it's been a revelation and I'm enjoying road riding more every time I go out.
Aim for this year was to take part in the Exmouth Exodus, however I've seen an early June date mentioned and I'm not sure I'll be in good enough shape by then... will have to wait and see.
I think that's enough waffle to be going on with.
Tally ho!
