We thought it would be a change to catch up with someone who can go quite some way back into the club history, and tell us what the club, and cycling, was like before the recent boom. Life Member John, has kindly agreed to be interviewed, and tell us about his experiences.
Q. Can you tell us about how you got into cycling?
Boxing Day 10tt H10/2 will NOT happen
Submitted by Andrew Payne on 16 December 2020 - 4:47pmDespite a few days ago saying our Boxing day 10tt will take place, I'm now saying it's cancellled as the whole of Berkhire is moving to Tier 4. At Tier 4 the CTT says time trials cannot go ahead.
However this is no excuse not to go for a ride in Festive fancy dress anyway.
All keep safe and act appropriately within all the guidelines.
Merry Christmas ,

Q. When and what made you start cycling

Q. When and what made you start cycling
A. I started cycling in May 2017 as part of rehabilitation after a knee operation. The surgeon advised no running going forward if I could help it but that cycling is pretty good for knees. So I bought a road bike and off I went!

Q. When and what caused you to start cycling?
A. I grew up at a time when all children cycled! I regularly cycled to school (2 miles each way) from the age of 12. Age 18 I spent one year living with parents 30 miles from university, and cycled that a few times a week. My first "serious distance" ride aged 19 was Dudley to Dawlish (~200 miles).
