Hi!

Hi All,
I've been cycling since February this year and have had quite an eventful time.

I haven't logged every mile (will do this next year), but I estimate about 2000 miles. I try to go out once a week with a couple of friends each week as well as a solo ride. I've had fun on a couple of charity rides too; love the atmosphere at those events.

I have recently upgraded from my old Apollo to a Carrera Subway Ltd (Hybrid). It is a couple of years old, but has been in the box since it was bought, so I got a real bargin there.

Any-hoo, I love cycling and believe it will help me reach my goals for weight loss and fittness. Great to see some like-minded people on here.

    welcome aboard - riding the bike is a cracking way to get fitter. Stick around for next summer's challenges, I'm sure we'll be running the "Grand Tour Challenges" again - starting in May with the Giro. And I may even dream up something themed around the spring classics races as well (though I'm not entirely sure what form that'll take!)

    Welcome, there are plenty of us here and there is also another group call Bicycling - Road & Mountain that has plenty of conversations going in there too!

    Feel free to add me, I'm always looking to bolster my friends list with like minded people! :smile:

    Hi,

    Fellow road-biker here; I don't tend to do the 'mucky stuff' (Mountain Biking etc.)

    Welcome aboard.

    Feel free to add me if you wish :wink:
  • That sounds interesting. How do the challenges work? I'm new to this...
