It’s the weekend of Paris-Roubaix and I’m sitting at the kitchen table pondering my evening ride. Paris-Roubaix or “the Hell of the North” as its also known, is one of those classics races that even as a newbie to road cycling you realise it’s special. It makes your heart race. The cobbles, the velodrome, the history, it grabs you. As you watch highlights of previous races in the build up, your heart pounds with excitement. You get that feeling of “if only I”, or “could I do that?”. I took up road cycling last year when a friend, (a bike mechanic), found me a 40 quid Falcon Reynolds 501 bike from another local bike mechanic. Ever since I have been gripped by the sport. When you click in and hit that open road, that feeling overcomes you; “this is where I’m meant to be”, things just seem to make sense. RED LIGHTS, HEADWINDS AND B Gary Shirlow
UMPY Now a year later I’m pondering the race tomorrow and wondering at my age have I missed something in life. I wonder how Matt Haymen at 38 felt as he pulled off the unlikeliest of wins at last years race and I think how He must have felt going into what was his 15th attempt at this race. Talk about perseverance!! I am one who believes in purpose. I know that we are all created for purpose and that each one of us has a destiny to fulfil. Is Paris- Roubaix mine, unfortunately at 35 I would have to say not very likely but yet I still have a destiny to fulfil.
