We'd not done a ride with a cafe stop for a while. I just prefer getting back home to a warm drink rather than stopping half way round, but it just felt like the type of day where a cafe stop was a good idea. No record timings were required either with Ryan racing the … Continue reading Cycling to Old Fire Station Cafe, Malpas

Trying New Cycling Routes
Going outside when it's cold and with a possibility of rain is a good way to spend your Sunday right...? Sort of. With a longer ride planned I'd decided to pop into Alf's to get a cycling jacket that didn't act more as a windbreaker than anything else. So following a quick visit to Alf's, … Continue reading Trying New Cycling Routes
Round-Up of 2016
This years been a bit of a random one. The type that makes you think, how on earth did all of that happen? The year didn't start off great. I'd gone into it wanting to go full steam ahead with downhill racing, but if you've been following my blog that clearly didn't happen. Seriously...I went … Continue reading Round-Up of 2016

Exploring Llandegla Forest With Friends
Two blog posts in one day? Should I be doing that? Who cares! Today's ride was too much fun to not write about it! Originally a ride to catch up with Anna, our group suddenly grew to include Kate, James and Ffion too. I've often found group rides to become quite difficult. People will often … Continue reading Exploring Llandegla Forest With Friends
A Windy Antur Stiniog
This year I’ve been somewhat cautious when it comes to getting onto my downhill bike.
Bikes & Brownies
For me cycling is more than just a sport I participate in. Encouraging girls to enjoy being active and being outdoors is just as important.
Lunch With A View
Exploring is such a crucial part of cycling to me, and something I've not done enough of lately. This is a blog post from a few years ago, when I wasn't training but just enjoying riding my bike. With a failed attempt at making Banana & Oat pancakes and a driving lesson that was a … Continue reading Lunch With A View
