Hey all,
Little bit of a delayed post it seems, I joined here in May 2010 when I got my bike, read lots at the beginning, lost my way a little bit and the bike felt as if it had retired. At the beginning of the year I realised I was a little larger than I wanted to be (don't we all at some point) so out came the bike again.
Since then I've loved being back on the bike and my rides have increased in distance and amounts, currently at 562 miles for the year (of which 420 miles are for April, aiming for 500). Weight loss has come along with the newly found ride excitement, 2.5 stone off since the beginning of the year, back under 14stone and still dropping.
Currently have a 10mile/20mile loop for after work and try and hit the Northumberland coast and countryside on my day off.
Current rides are Dawes Vantage tourer and a newly acquired Giant Talon 29er 2 MTB and if anyone is interested I can be found on Strava http://www.strava.com/athletes/1595887
