New member as of today.
61 years old and have not very much for the last 40+ of them however a lot has changed this year.
In June due to my increasing weight I started a diet and as of now I have reduced from 15st 6lb to 12st 11ld, a couple of month ago I joined a gym in Romford (my home town) and am now working out and running over 25 km a week.
Now this may be somewhat boring and to have nothing to do with cycling but watching other members of the gym arrive on their bikes has awakened something in me (a love of cycling/bikes) that has laid dormant since my late teens at which time I was a regular cyclist and a memeber of a cycling club in Manor Park, East London, then along came my Vespa followed by a car and the bike gathered dust and rust until I sold it to a workmate.
I was lucky to have an old MTB lying unused in my garage, it had belonged to my Nephew but he no longer wants it, it has now been stripped down and cleaned, greased and put back together and I am now using it on a regular basis.
Problem now I cannot seem to keep out of bike shops.
