The music does not necessarily relate to this order!

Married to Geraldine . 2 daughters, Rachel & Victoria.

Took early retirement from BT and have spent the last 
 2 years doing many of the things I always promised 
 myself I would do, once I had the time.

Hobbies: Cycling, Hill-walking, (I expect to be doing 
 a lot of this, pushing the bike through Cornwall and 
 parts of Scotland!). Improving my golf (that's the 
 idea anyway)

Interests: Socialising / Dining out with friends
 Following the fortunes of Everton FC (on the up since 
 Walter Smith became manager).
 Computers / trawling the Internet. Reading - anything
 and  everything.
 Travelling / Seeing new places, (hoping to visit my 
 daughter in Australia in the New Year)

Chris Smith

   
Chris is from Neston, on the Wirral. He is married 
 to Margaret, and has a 10 year old daughter - Rachel.   
 
At 47 he is the youngster of the group but, unlike the 
 others, he has not retired from paid employment and 
 so gets less time to train that they do. 

Spends most of his time working for BT, but cycles 
 when he can escape. 

Also enjoys sailing, and walking. 

Has never done anything like this before, but has 
 completed the C2C route over 2.5 days and the 
 Cheshire Cycleway in two days (several times). 

He has also written some of the pages on this site.

Phil Owens

   
Aged 61.

I renewed my interest in cycling when working in
 Holland (1990 - 1994) and continued with Brentwood
 CTC while  living/working in Essex (1994 - 1996).

I have been enjoying my retirement since leaving
 Shell in April 1996.

My longest ride previous to this was cycling the 
 C2C route from Whitehaven to Newcastle with my wife        
 Wendy in 1998 - total distance 140 miles, a 
 wonderful experience.

If any of you out there have even half a mind to 
 take up cycling     -   believe me   - 
 thats all you need ! ! ! ? ? ?
