The year started with a simple goal: Ride more. The plan worked and 15kg weight loss later, achieved through hitting the gym and riding a variety of Peloton, ICG & Matrix stationary trainers whilst away on business and getting back out on the bike.
With the riding happening again I set some targets, new gravel bike after 10kg weight loss and a mission to ride to mum’s house in North Wales on the edge of Snowdonia. A custom spec’d Scott Addict Gravel Bike, with full SRAM Force AXS and Zipp 303 Firecrests and a Wahoo Roam arrived courtesy of J’s Cycles. There’s a full Syncros frame back set to go with it too.
Mileage has been clocking up with several 100km+ rides in the bag for the year already and a whole lot of bigger ones planned. Let’s keep rolling…
