When did you start cycling? At 28 and after a ten-year absence from cycling, I decided to get back on the saddle and start again… There was a mix of reasons why I’d stopped cycling by the time I was 18; I wasn’t feeling that confident on the roads anymore, and I’d managed to convince myself (through my own fears...

What do you do? Many many things, some more interesting than others, but even then only interesting to me. I certainly don't believe in free time.
