Hi everyone I'm new to this forum so thought I should pop up and say hello
I've only been cycling since the the end of April this year, cycling is something I've wanted to do for a good few years but always put it of with one excuse or another
Devastatingly back in march of this year my 3 month old daughter died of a extremely rare and undetected heart condition, this was a massive shock as there was no symptoms whatsoever and always thought she was very healthy
This touched the community very deeply and prompted 3 people who are cycling fanatics to ride 600 miles over 4 days starting from west Wales riding to Middlesbrough and back
They rode in memory of my daughter and fantastically over £5,000 was raised for the lullaby trust
This really inspired me to get a bike and actually get out riding, I've since become good friends with the cyclists and quite often ride with them at the weekend
I'm still very much a novice but am enjoying every moment on the bike and have entered the Pembroke 100 mile next April which gives me something positive to look forward to and try to achieve
Sadly I will never ride alongside my beautiful daughter so the very least I can do is ride for her and for myself
Look forward to chatting with you all and apologise in advance for some very novice questions that I'm sure to ask
