After an shoulder-injury from basketball, I started cycling at the age of 50. After a habituation year for my behind, I start to like cycling more and more. So in Torrevieja I bought my second racing bike from a friendly Belgium, named Ronald. He showed me some tours in our neighborhood like Rebate, which is still one of my favorites. Meeting Cannondale-John turned out to be the entry to a weekly ride on Wednesday with the Amigos del Ciclismo. Starting at Studz, meeting nice people, and discover week after week more from our area between Alicante and Murcia. Hoping this will last for a long time.

Although we have done a lot of cycling over the years it's been mainly touring and mountain biking. Bring relatively new to road biking it was beneficial to start riding with the group who dragged us along and still continue to do so. To see one of our touring adventures follow the link.

I started cycling six years ago joining Cycological’s weekly hybrid group. I quickly got the bug, purchasing my first road bike three years later. About the same time I started running, winning a number of local events. Then with a lot of support from the Amigos group, I decided to enter my first triathlon, The Leukaemia & Lymphoma Research Blenheim Palace Triathlon, which I completed successfully. I enjoyed it so much, next year, I‘ve entered a duathlon and a double triathlon.

I met the Amigos in July 2015 via their Amigos del Ciclismo website. It was perfect to where we were staying in Quesada and I was immediately struck by their welcome on a very well organised club run. David Garside loaned me a great wee Dawes bike which was a pleasure to ride. The Amigo's invited my wife Anne Marie and I to their evening dinner and we had a great night's crack which included telling tall tales and some good old fashion Irish banter, especially from that Dublin fella! We look forward to meeting up in 2016.

Never won anything on a bicycle
