So fess up OP, how long have you been into Craft Beer and Cycling then?
Cycling well forever really, but I was about 14 when started buying ycling mags (MTB action, mbuk) and watching the tour and getting into the kit and the sport over and above just riding. I’m 37 now.
Craft beer, well it came on to my radar in about 2005 about the same time I started home brewing.
@ feenster, sounds like we’ve been living parallel lives, I’ll be 44 this july , believe me you get less bothered about the fads that come and go, when I first started mtb it was all about a spliff of gold seal after a ride rather than a craft ale. This is in no way meant to be patronising.
It’s like beer but for people who think it’s niche but now they found out it isn’t they don’t want to be cool anymore. Of course it was always beer and they were never cool but let’s not mention that.
It’s a bit like kitchen knives, coffee, overtaking, shaving and any other thing that normal people do, but now the chattering classes have discovered it, it’s important?
