One of my hobbies is cycling. I started cycling as a kid and enjoyed it for a number of years through into my 20s before having a hiatus from it for 20 years. After moving to the Oxford area a couple of years ago I returned to cycling – cycling both for pleasure and transport – and currently have 3 bicycles (a ’90s MTB, a gravel bike and an endurance road bike). It dovetails quite nicely with my photography hobby as it’s enjoyable to ride out to one of the many nature spots around Oxford (or even just include them as stops on a route). I do the vast majority of the maintenance work on my bicycles myself.
You can read a bit more about my earlier cycling years here.
I write about my return to it after the hiatus here.
And finally I write about being knocked off my bicycle by a car (no broken bones, thankfully) and the two bicycles I got next.
