Anyone here a fan of the Tour de France? Or Vuelta a Espana, Giro d'Italia?Looking forward to the Tour de France on 26 June - hopefully France will have sorted its vaccination programme by then!ViewDate:

Cycling on pavements and in parksAgreed. Where I live we have combined walking and cycling paths, separated by a kerb down the centre but it's virtually safer to use roads for cycling as the number of walkers using the cycle path is driving me crazy, especially dog walkers who seem to think the cycle path is solely for them. At times I feel I'm a magnet as they keep walking towards me, having seen me! Sorry to say, with the warmer weather coming, it will only get worse!ViewDate:

CyclingI started cycling again last summer on my 70th birthday after too many years out of the saddle. I also treated myself to an ebike kit and am so glad I did - you still have to put in the work, but hills are not so daunting! I now actually prefer cycling to walking and I use the app 'Map My Walk' for both activities - it's a great way to keep track of your monthly distances. So, in answer to your question, you are not daft - you will gradually see improvements. (I note it's an old post, but still applies to anyone considering getting back on 2 wheels!.)ViewDate:
