@ScotiaLass forgot to say that she is also a cycle ride leader now, with her own Belles on Bikes group

This is true. Again it's something I would never thought I would or could, do.
But with encouragement from some lovely ladies , I did my ride leader course and started my own ladies ride group.
Next up is a bike mechanic course!

I used to be, then I discovered the CC know how forum
Btw, watch the Sustrains video on the M-check I posted on my FB, excellent and easy to follow.
