Hi from SWF Essex

[John Shingler]

Hi, John here …discovered this forum while browsing so thought I’d give it a go. I’m from South Woodham Ferrers Essex. Bought a Trek Marlin 29er back in 2011 in an attempt to get fit lose some weight etc. Beginning of this year started cycling more, lost a couple of stone and really got into it with a passion. Now fancy trying a road bike as most of my riding is off road.

Hello John

 

[Dazza]

Hi John, we often ride our road bikes in southend, or mtb's in Brentwood... look out for Team Bianchi on your travels - might be organising a ride to The Lodge one day soon too

 

[John Shingler]

I'll be looking out for you ...I normally ride around Hanningfield, Stock way. Lodge is just down the road from me.
