Hi all just joined the site, looking for all sorts of advice, insider knowledge and to learn a bit more about cycling.
I'm based in mid-Norfolk just outside Norwich, and to date my only cycling experience has been a 12 mile commute during the summer months on an old MTB, with the odd recreational hack through the woods on it thrown in for good measure.
Things are changing however, as I undertake a challenge each year for charity, and this year have set myself the goal of cycling 500 miles in 5 days from my hometown Dereham, down to Paris, via a town in Normandy that Dereham is twinned with. There will be 6 of us on the ride, with a support van as well, and I'm sure I will post a few things on here about it as time goes on!

I hope the challenge goes well.
