That’s a really good blog.
Nice one Matthew Harding.
Personally, I admire the racers, the hardcore blokes, carved out of teak on cross bikes and with the thousand yard stares.
But I just love the ‘fat blokes on flats and mtb’s with Karrimor Jackets’:
I’m one of them and if it wasn’t for the encouragement of Jason and Andy and the rest I’d never have had the balls to enter a bike race at all.
But I’m really glad I did – five races done, lost the fear, met some great people and I’m really looking forward to the next one.
