Of course, cycling is not natural - bikes don't grow - you have to buy them.
As cycling continues it meteoric rise in the UK following Wiggo's victory in le tour, I've decided to return to blogging after a few years absence.
The purpose is that I can share some routes and talk about stuff that happens while I'm out on my bike. It'll hopefully encourage me to get out more too: the incessant rain and a spill on my ride to work, which has left the ligaments in my right hand permanently damaged, have curtailed my efforts a bit recently.
I've also just arrived back from summer hols France where I managed to catch two tour stages - one of my pix is below from the Col de Peyresourde.
This is on the lower slopes just before Cadel Evans had his goose cooked - you can see him toward the right of the shot - mid roast. There were lots of upset Aussies in the bar in Arreau that day.
Don't get me wrong, I like Aussies and Cadel was a very worthy winner in 2011. But it is always good to see them get wiped out - in a sporting sense.
Until next time, ride safe.
