Can you spot a thread here... I don't only ear cycling books, but bought a new bike after christmas with the intention of riding lots again and losing weight - I sit firmly in your list of the percentage who are overweight! I have been riding most days; doing my shopping by bike rather than car now, and have lost a stone in six weeks. Crashed hard a few days ago - was surprised by a rogue manhole cover on a wet corner and in trying to avoid it hit the kerb and landed on my shoulder. Got a week away now, so time to recover and get back on asap. Also planning a trip around the outer Hebrides this June. Thanks for the books, they are great, and inspire my forthcoming trip - however short it may be in comparison! 1: moods of future joys.
