Hobbies

I took up cycling during lockdown, simply as a way to get out of the house and keep active. What began as short 5 or 6 mile trips along canal paths has turned into multiple 50+ mile rides per week. In 2020 I completed the 72 mile Tour ‘O The Borders ride in Scotland and in June of this year I completed the 98 mile, 7,800 ft of elevation gain Dragon Ride in South Wales.
