Number of consecutive years you have been regularily cycling. Four years

What keeps you on the bike-It depends on which type of cycling i'm doing @ the time. I like to the fact I can jump on my road bike & wander round the city and the countryside and do whatever distance I can. I get the feeling of achievement when I can do a 200km ride or a fast 50km. I also mountain bike and it's so nice to not hear cars ahh. It's cool biking past Kangaroos, blue tongue lizards and other creatures.

Cycling is just an awesome activity. Don't worry about injuries you'll recover

If you have lost weight, what was it and kept it off? I am not sure how much i've lost but i used to be a size 16, almost 18 (NZ sizes) and am now just about a size 12. I feel much better about my body shape when I cycle or swim

Get out there and ride
