Some years ago I decided to get back into cycling having not done any since the middle of last century. I searched our local version of ebay and found a cheap bike. Rode that for months and found out the features I liked about cycling and what I did not. Searched the local bike shops and bought a full suspension mountain bike. Used that for a couple of years and found that as leader of the group I was the one who had to be helped up the hills. (even though this bike had 33 gears). Decided that electric was the way to go and spent 8k on a German mountain bike.
This bike has semi-aggressive tyres and I ride on sealed roads, gravel roads, bike trails and mountain bike tracks. At the moment I am riding Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays and have put on over six-n-a-half thousand ks on this bike.
I look after the Wednesday group with over 200 members on the mailing list and 60 to 80 turning up to ride each week.
Oh it's the middle of winter here now and I'm 84.
