Hey guys and gals.
New here, just having a browse and it seemed like an intriguing community so I thought I would stick around a while.
Not really a hardcore cyclist, but will be picking up a bike for my daily commute to work from home, Wembley to East London. Much cheaper than the £1200 plus I have paid on transport over the past 12 months. I am only here another 3/4 so will be picking up a cheap(ish) single-speed for my commute.
Ciao for now.

I am about to take up 'city-cycling' to help me get over an injury (torn patella in left knee twice) I got from training prior to beginning the PRMC. My physio recommended cycling as it is a continous but less 'impact-based' form of knee rehabilitation. Good luck with your recovery, I would recommend cycling over other forms of fitness which will cause impact in the knee area. Also do yoga/pilates to increase the strength, this will aid your leg strength (and core) for riding.
