Sunday Mail: All those strange cycling questions!

Written by Fiona April 21 2014

Am I a MAMIL? Do I really need to know how to fix a puncture? How do I prevent chaffing? What is the Lycra for? How do I work sooo many gears?

Many more people are taking up road cycling – and many will be wondering about a host of questions. These questions might seem a little silly or trivial to those people who have been riding for a while, but they do require answers.

My Sunday Mail column this week focused on some of those cycling things that you always wanted to know but were afraid to ask. Mostly this article is for fun! Click on the pics to see the full pdf.
