I have always enjoyed cycling as a way of keeping fit and active. Until recently I was involved in veteran triathlon competitions until a scare whilst open water swimming destroyed my confidence in the water and ultimately led to me spending less and less time on the bike. In turn this led to deteriorating levels of physical fitness. I have recently joined Team VeloVitesse as a way of getting back into cycling as a way of boosting my self-confidence and improving my general fitness with the intention of getting back into local road & off-road cycling competitions.
