The only thing is, he's not great at offroading yet so I'll be teaching him some bits'n'pieces over the Christmas break.<br /><br />Rafe, looking forward to it!Clive Chapmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11085791760784493200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63647772262858042.post-68929980934160305002009-12-23T10:24:48.529+00:002009-12-23T10:24:48.529+00:00Congrats mate!

I know of one other person who, because he saw how fit I was after cycling, bought one of my bikes off me and now does the same!<br /><br />And as long as you inspire yourself - your doing well...<br /><br />And good on you for shaming your mate into the Gym. Tell him not to waste his money, get a bike and get out riding with you :)Jobyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18351415733437528273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63647772262858042.post-30743536323726110952009-12-23T10:20:58.535+00:002009-12-23T10:20:58.535+00:00Oh, and keep up the good work because I am going t...Oh, and keep up the good work because I am going to make it up to your part of the world one day for an off-road cycle :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63647772262858042.post-84780820556318484442009-12-23T10:20:00.426+00:002009-12-23T10:20:00.426+00:00I too was keeping it a secret from people close to...I too was keeping it a secret from people close to me for the reasons I mentioned in my blog, which I suspect are similar to yours. You're set up for failure and you don't need someone taking the piss. You first need to get to the point where you are serious/committed in your own mind and have a success, however little, under your belt (as it were ;)<br /><br />Stupid thing is that if you are serious then the people close to you should be supportive - otherwise it's time to get rid of them ;) <br /><br />I'm just glad you've got to that stage as recently have and it's good. My in-laws (who we share a house with), my wife and a friend at work all know now that I'm making an effort. Though I don't think any of them realise I blog about it :) <br /><br />If us saddos that read your blog have helped get you there then I'm even more pleased. I have to say (again) that seeing the likes of Joby do it has helped me, as have the people that read my ramblings.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
