I've been lurking for, well, about an hour and I've decided to post to say hello. I post either as this or "Sprite" depending which computer I'm using!
I've recently started cycling a lot more, in addition to cycling to school (A Level results next week! Oo-er!), probably a result of the good weather, but I love it too. Impressed to find my heart rate has also gone down!

Just saying hi :-)
"hi" I'm fairly new here too, it's an okay group, nice people too 🙂
More seriously -- welcome. Good luck with the A levels.
Also seriously, Guy -- how about updating your 'regulars' page with some

Just started reading through - it'll take me a while :-)
I'm trying to remember exactly what my first bike was - it was a little red thing, a Raleigh... I'll try and find a picture hehe. Then I had an Emmelle BMX, followed by a Raleigh Camaro or something? British Eagle "Atlanta" - I rode it for the last time not two hours ago, and I'm picking up a new bike tomorrow morning... a Raleigh Devotion. I'm not a particularly 'girly' girl and it suits me down to a tee! Super-light frame... nice and useful for me, I use my bike to make train journeys easier and there are lots of stairs involved... 😉

Presumably by cycling instead of taking the train? Who could blame you in the current climate (pun inteded!)

Well if I am to confess it's a bit of both! 😉 I live in an annoying place... my station is a good ol' walk, but it's great for London as the line is pretty speedy into Waterloo. Though I'm well connected for 'my' area, my friends all live in a different area of the suburbs, still close but on parallel train lines I suppose...and so much changing of trains is involved! I usually cycle a few miles to another station on another line, that way I just need to take 1 train for a few stops. Cycling all the way would be killer - as soon as I get to my destination we tend to play football all day!
But don't get too mad too quickly, I go out on an hourly cycle or so (nearly) every night. Even yesterday 😉

Mad? me? I'd be a fine one to talk - I commute a massive 3.5 miles each way daily. Although I've been off worj this week, so I've covered about 70 miles so far.
There are far more round here that are "hardcore" than I.

Two ways:
1) Send your offering to Guy Chapman, along with a polite letter, CV, fixed fee of 10 pounds, inside leg measurement...
2) Develop yourself into a character such as P**l Sm*ith or J*hn Sh*ckf*rd
Option one sounds best to me. -- If ingnorance is bliss then I am the erm er luckiest thingy in the whatchamacallit. To mail me, change the obvious bit to richard
