Hi from wiltshire

[schnorb]

Hello All
Well like others i have looked at this site on and off for a year or so looking for something to maybe kick start a change in my life style. At 19.5 stone and 5ft 10 inch tall looking good in lycra is not an option!

I started riding a old mtb i found on ebay 18 months ago and things have gone well ish, yes when i started riding back then i had to stop a lot but built it up and can now ride 20 to 25 miles and still be able to walk afterwards

I have got to a point now the old mtb has been modified and modified again and i need something a little--------faster, i pedel like hell but i guess i faster now than the bike will go so will be looking to replace it so will be posting question on other pages for help with that.

So that about my story so far hope to talk to some of you and gain more knowledge of this addictive sport/hobby.
