The phrase ‘social, domestic and pleasure’, are three simple words that are a fair description of the role bicycles play in our lives, often with a bit of commuting thrown in for good measure. Whether on the weekend club ride, running local errands or enjoying a solitary spin through the countryside, as keen cyclists our bike (or more likely bikes, plural) has a pivotal place in our day-to-day lives.
Many of us also enjoy using our bikes on holiday in the UK or abroad, whether as the sole focus of the trip, or getting in the saddle for a few quick miles before breakfast. The thought of exploring a new country or testing yourself up a Grand Tour mountain with the warm sun on your back is great motivation to keep riding through the dark winter months.
