“I have always owned a bike, but as my knees aged cycling replaced jogging as my main from of exercise. I organise the rota of ride leaders for the C-Group rides and usually lead a ride each month. In the summer I join the Wednesday evening group for the ice-cream run to Bonds. I enjoy the C-Group rides for several reasons: I like the Lancashire countryside, the company and friendship of fellow cyclists and the exercise provide by a 40 to 50-mile ride. I recently purchased a mountain bike and now go on the monthly Trailer rides. Over the last 15 years I have been on numerous cycling holidays in Europe. We started in the Alsace and have subsequently cycled over the Alps, along the Canal du Midi, along the Mosel and Rhine, through Belgium and in the Loire, Burgundy and Dordogne.”
