Hi from Kent

[flissh]

Hello all,

Been lurking for a while and thought it was time to say hello. I'm a middle aged woman who gave up running and thought it would be good to get on a bike now and again and some how I've become hooked.
Love cycle chat and all the friendly advice thats available, just wish I'd realised years ago how good cycling is.

Welcome

Cycling seems much easier to keep up than running too, if I don't run for a couple of weeks, first run back leaves me struggling to walk for a couple of days

Welcome Kentish Lady or a Lady of Kent?

 

[Chrisz]

PS Cycling is so much more dignified than running (and it doesn't batter your knees either)

 

[flissh]

oo hang on I think I'm a Kentish Lady, and yes cycling is so much more dignified that running!

Hi Flissh and .

 

[Biker Joe]

Hello and .
I'm so glad you finally came to your senses and realized that cycling is the only way to go.

Flissh: I too feel I should have started cycling much earlier in life.
Better late than never

Welcome to the website. Like you I also did running before, but had problems with my knees, so took up cycling and its the best thing I have done.

Hey, what part of Kent are you from?

I'm based in Maidstone and I believe there is a ride planned around Gravesend next month. Check the informal ride forum for the details if you fancy coming.
