    Old Dog, new tricks

    Hi I do a bit of caravanning and like to cycle as well so last year I bought a second-hand bike from somebody on a camp site as My old legs can't work as well as they did. The reason for joining this forum is to gather knowledge, hopefully as and when I need it as I'm new to this.
