Nothing on the outstanding year that was 2012, but achieved the following:
Started with the Sunrise Audax. Plan to do the same again in 2015.
Got my daily 6.5 mile commute back again.
Got a second bike. This is a first for me. All other bikes have been replacements.
Helped a lad do his first 100 miles on an Audax from Tamworth.
Helped a colleague do his first 100 miles on a Sportive starting in Malvern. And we got Gold standard. And met a captain of industry.
Got knocked off my bike. And survived with nothing more than a few (very big) bruises.
Got faster and stronger. Have been doing Strava segments on my heavy bike at the same time as on my road bike earlier on this year.
Had my first ride with my son, sitting in a child seat on the back. Even better, he loved it so much he burst into tears when we stopped for a rest.
In summary - a very good year indeed.
