Back into cycling after 40 year hiatus!

Recently retired and fancied getting fit on a bike. Bought a cheap Raleigh (Strada 1) and haven't looked back, absolutely love it all.

Well done 👍
Ps..you do need to look back sometimes...especially when turning right 😂

Welcome. Things have moved on a bit over the years.
Ask me how I know.

Oh! And many people in the UK think that driving on any side of the road is OK for them.

Beware the school run hoursl!

Welcome. Things have moved on a bit over the years.

Not all of us have moved on, some of us are still riding the same bikes that were around when we were 14

That is very lucky.

My bestie was from '88, when I restarted cycling.

We had lots of adventures.

Currently being used by #2 son to commute.
I still miss it.
