A few years ago I bought a bike, basically for a bit of exercise. After a bit of encouragement from Pat Purvis I joing Carn Wheelers. A great club, where I have met loads of great people.
I never knew how seriously I would actually take to the cycling, but when I realised it was a great way to lose weight and keep it off, I stuck at it.
Now I have entered quite a few races, time trials and sportives and love it. I won one of them, but have since moved up a group and am now just the man who does the donkey work for everyone else. Great way of getting fit though.
