Q: When did you start and what made you start cycling
A: I started cycling “properly” in 2008. Had bikes on a couple of occasions previous to that but did not cycle much. I was a keen squash, cricket and football player but age caught up with me so was looking for another sport. A work colleague encouraged me. Squash damaged me a bit as I have had two hip operations. Like Andy Murray has had.

Can three groups meet at Velolife??
Submitted by Sarah Davies on 24 March 2019 - 3:41pmThe first weekend of Spring brought out lots of us this morning - finally the wind has dropped, the sun is out and the temperature is rising. A couple of the usual clock tower riders took the opportunity to ride out with the Bird Hills group and by all accounts cruised round the 60 miles plus at a speed of over 19mph. The rest of us met at the Clock Tower at the usual time. Tom had offered to take a medium-fast group over a hilly 55 miles (average 16-5mph), and the rest of us were set to do a 40 mile route (average 14-16mph).
