I'm not sure whether you guys on here know, but I'm only 15. Just turned 15 a few weeks ago actually!
I love my cycling, and bicycles in general. I'm half Dutch and they love it! Cycling has always been part of life! If I've needed to get somewhere, I cycle. I probably ride almost everyday if not 4/5 times a week.But it isn't just as a mode of transport, I like fettling them, stripping them, restoring them too. Basically, I love it, the whole thing.
But recently, I've started going for rides on my road bike with friends and sometimes on my own, and I love every minute. It's great for pleasure and exercise and everything! But there is that little thing inside me telling me I could do something with this (talent)?? I can happily cycle 20 miles on roads averaging 16mph withouts stops and come back feeling absolutely fine, not tired or achy in any way. People always say to me, especially my family, aren't you tired from all that? I just don't feel it. Does that mean I've got special stuff inside me? Have I got the talent? I'm only just 15 after all. I really love sport, cycling and football especially, and I've been told I've got potential in both, but cycling is the one I'd really like to pursue.
What do you reckon guys? Is it just my mind telling me I'm the next Wiggo or Cav?
Or do I genuinely have a chance?
Thanks!!!
