Description
My family have always been into cycling.
My dad was a big-time trialist, having set national records on both the tandem and the trike. I became more of a road race man and a sprinter, honing my skills at the Eastway circuit (now the site of the 2012 London Olympic Park).
Cycling was a large part of my life growing up.
When I was young, I won a few races as a junior. When I went to Southampton University, I set up a cycling club there. But then I got glandular fever, started work, got married, had a kid, and never really got back into competitive cycling.
I had started riding into work a bit, with a turning point coming in summer 2011 when I was diagnosed with prostate cancer.
I decided to get myself properly fit again and did lots of riding, in the process raising over £3,000 for Macmillan, a British cancer charity.
I also used cycling as a great way to get active again following my operation (trying to avoid the potholes - ouch!). In 2013, I rode 5,000 miles between Land's End and John O'Groats.
