Hello, good evening and welcome!

Race, never that good, not bad at the longer distance TT in my fitter days but now, like to get out do the miles but its taking me longer and longer recover.

Got back on in April this year after 15 years or so and I am loving it. Done a couple of 100 km audax in Angus, commute 4 days a week and I'm set fair for the winter.

To be honest I was not that good at road racing, only rode them as training rides for TT events. Rode TT of all distances up to 100 miles.

Then I was forced to "retire" after two knee operations, same knee as well.

Tried racing again after it had healed, but my knee was to weak and I didn't want to risk not be able to ride a bike at all.

So had twelve months away from the bike, then started riding Audax events, turns out I really enjoy them.

Hi Gary, thanks for the welcome, I wondered when you would pop up.

Only 17 posts up to now - you've been on here more than day - pull your finger out

Don't worry, I'm working on it as we speak.

Anyway, just yer butt on our Tuesday evening rides, no excuses.
