Where do you live and what do you do?
So where does everyone live in the UK and what type of riding do you do?
I live south of Manchester and at the moment I'm mostly road riding (although I do love the track!!).

Re: Re: Where do you live and what do you do?
Outside of London (on the west). Recently got my first road bike and ride just for sheer enjoyment. The Chiltern hills make for nicely varied gradients.

I live in sunny, south Wales, but originally from Manchester. Sounds like Deansgate is still the same! I ride road races. The hills round here are great for training! Ric

Re: Where do you live and what do you do?
I live on the north side of Sheffield. Why do so many people in this forum live around the Peak District?
I'm just getting back into cycling after a five year gap. I used to do mainly time-trialling and a bit of road racing and cyclo-cross, but my plans now are for Audax-type events. I did "Phil and Friends" last summer and really enjoyed it - though I was shocked at how unfit I was. |

Hi, I live in Newbury, near reading. Do you cycle alone or in a group? I ride a cheapo MB but like to ride the roads, especially the country roads on a nice sunny day. You looking for a ride partner? Chris |

Yeah I kind of am, but I don't think Newbury is really within reach from here unfortunately. I think I'm quite a ways to the north east of you. Thing is, I've seen a fair few lone warriors out on the roads near Beaconsfield (and one particular beauty on my street today on a sweet looking Trek) but none of them seem to be part of the CF community. If there are any other weekend recreational roadies out there near me, I wouldn't mind hearing from you.

Re: Where do you live and what do you do?
On the coast where Exmoor meets the sea at Lynmouth. The hills here are 1 in 4 (25%), so cycling is hard but rewarding, I believe the scenery here is about as beautiful as anything I've seen and I've travelled on every continent. I'm on a gap year and in training to ride across America in 25 days at the end of the summer.
