Sofa To Saddle

A cycling group dedicated to new and novice riders. There's no need for Lycra or the latest carbon frame, anything that feels comfortable will do.

@James85fletcher @monzo @cearonoflynn Quite simple: in SQL, which is often used in web forms, apostrophes are generally used to identify the beginning and end of a string, so cause a problem when they are included as part of the string.
Maybe the people who created SQL disliked the Irish. 🤷‍♂️

@OnePint And this was after your first ride since since dinosaurs roamed the Earth?!
I think you may have been a fish in a previous life.

@100Climbs As it’s a clue to where any foolhardy two-wheeled road user is likely to end up, it’s got to be grave.

@TansuYegen Good point, we’ll made 👏

Scooters aren’t really my thing but is seriously impressive.

When your workouts have reached these dizzying heights, it’s time to relax, and get your bike out.

Cycling, done the old fashioned way. https://t.co/r4IBwfJ88G

Given the poor standard of driving, which seems to have got worse as the number of cyclists has grown, these seem like a really good idea. Although I’ll probably wait for the prices to drop a bit.

No surprise then that this was the best turnout in over a year. Great to see so many new and old faces, and everyone keeping to safe distances, which can’t be said for everywhere I’ve been this weekend.
Thanks to all who involved.

Beautiful morning for the first group ride for me for over a year! Might have been blowing a bit up those hills... 🌬 🚲 @SofaToSaddle

@RevDavidGreen You've got that all wrong David!

Those boots should have been your lead story. They might not look it, but they're far more current than the other story.

No doubt a few of our members will remember when this was new. I wonder if they’d appreciate its glorious transformation. 😉

Another classic steel frame saved from a trip to the scrapheap. Believed to be a 1937 @ClaudButlerUK purchased new by the current owner's grandfather and regularly ridden during WW2, dodging bombs along the way!

@Chris_Boardman @WMallingCycles My kind of cycling! Smiles all round.

[Sofa To Saddle @SofaToSaddle]

Makes it even more worth the effort. Well done Joe!

[Joe Wicks @thebodycoach]

If you missed the announcement today, I shared an update on how much money we've raised so far from advertising on YouTube 😀

Thanks to you and everyone that has taken part and watched the #PEWithJoe workouts... we've together raised just over £80,000 for the NHS 🙏🏻

[Sofa To Saddle @SofaToSaddle]

@ElsonOnDemand We’ve been out on a few family rides, and seen lots of the members out and about over the last few days. Sadly, the lawnmower has become my @F1 substitute this w/e, so not had the bike out at all.

[Sofa To Saddle @SofaToSaddle]

With all the restrictions on what we can do in public, why not join PE with Joe for a great 30 minute morning workout, without leaving your front room.

With great sadness, we have to announce the cancellation of ALL StS activities until the end of April. This includes our regular rides and our British Cycling led rides, as well as the #teamStS training and fundraising activities.
