Join us for ANOTHER #TOWPATHTALK

Join Izabela Murtagh, Scotland's most enthusiastic commuter, for May’s talk at the Towpath Café at Biketrax.

In the sixth talk of the series we bring you three amazing guests: Cheryl Hutchins, and Helen and Mike Langridge.

Cheryl Cheryl completed her first triathlon in her 50s after encouragement from friends. Although she ran a lot and swam for pleasure, her biking skills left much to be desired. She found that with consistent training and better kit she was able to achieve her goals and, to her astonishment, now in her 60s she is qualified and races for the GB age group team. Her story is one of how to train to be competitive on a bike and of adapting her training for her age.

Helen and Mike Helen and Mike met in January 2016 on Tinder where Mike said he really wanted to cycle around the world. Helen’s first message was “when are we leaving?”. Fifteen months later, they’d sold everything they owned, quit their jobs and were waving goodbye to family and friends to head off for a very long bike tour. After cycling through thirty countries on four continents over seventeen months and covering around thirty thousand kilometres, they arrived home with plenty of stories to tell. 

Join us at the Towpath Café for the final talk before the summer break and get inspired for all your summer adventures!
