Charlie Hobbs. Charlie the Bikemonger. Charlie the Merchmonger. Charlie the Bum Butterer. However you know him, you’ll know he’s got stories. Before he set off for the queue at the post office, a blue rinse, and a Honda Jazz, we sat down for a Desert Island Discs session. It’s been an action packed life so far, so there are plenty of anecdotes, tales of the unexpected, and random asides.
More than bikes, I like what bikes do. I think that they link people and places; that cycling creates a connection between us and our environment; bikes create communities; deliver freedom; bring joy; and improve fitness. They're environmentally friendly and create friendly environments.
