Hello!

I'm Peter, 46 from a small village called Littleborough.

I have had a tatty old 70's racing bike for a cpl of years now and and just bought a new Scott as i have enjoyed the old one so much i fancy life on a newer nicer bike,to do the weekend runs and charity bike rides

I love getting out there on a sat and sun morning early before the traffic comes out , and as well as the enjoyment of riding, getting a bit fitter.

I currently only cycle around 20-30 miles on a run at around 12 miles per hour avarage and after a year or so i still struggle on the same hills and do not feel any fitter (For the first time in my life i do have muscles in my leg though) and am wondering when does it get any easier up the slopes as living in the Pennines all directions are UP!

So that's me.
Cheers

Hallo and welcome

I am not sure that it gets any easier, but you will get faster

It does get easyer but its a gradual process.Its a bit like watching a puppy grow, you see it on a regular basis so you dont notice it so much until a mate comes round that hasn,t seen it for a couple of months and says, hasn,t your dog grown.

Hills don't get easier, but you start to enjoy them more !
