alot more than if i didnt cycle lool i like the thrill of coming to a massive hill and powering up it after it looking so daunting and impossible to get up and getting over it for the massive downhill 45mph rush downwards makes my heart pound eyes water the adrenalin rush i get is amazing :D

I am new to road bikes and love the challenge of cycling uphill but I am nervous about the downhill especially at 40 mph plus

Just started road cycling - first run yesterday, a nice easy 12 miles to get me going. I have cycled before, but only mountain bike and fairly relaxed, legs are about the only thing that work reasonably well!!

For me fitness, a bit of cardio-vascular exercise (I'm not young) and the joy of being able to try new routes - this site is excellent for that.

My personal goal for the next 12 months is to push the distance and try and get a 100k ride completed.

The satisfaction of knowing I'm toning up whilst riding through some of the most beautiful scenery in England. I'm a beginner and can only bike at wkends as I've done for the last 5 and I'm already feeling fitter and happier, I have a love/hate relationship with hills.

all the above - and getting to understand the area I live in. I thought it was flat when I only used a car. Having just done coast to coast I REALLY appreciate the Lakes.

being new to road cycling, I get that buzz...you know the feeling when all you can think of is the next ride and when its a nice quiet road and you can get into your groove, the hedge rows zip by and you forget that you have wheels coz it feels like your flying.
