Me and My Bike


ME -

Wrong side of 50;

Took up cycling in 2010;

Cycling style – head down plodder;

Likes – The Blues, The Blacks, The Browns;

Dislikes – The Reds, The Greens;

Outlook – don’t whine and whinge about things, keep trying and don’t give up because no matter how bad things may seem, there’s always someone worse off than you.
