English Cycles runs car-free, which means I haul everything by bicycle. Gas tanks go in trailers, tubing and frames fit in rear panniers. All good training when I have to ride over the hill to get into town! Here is Craig’s recumbent all boxed up and about to be towed in to ship out – always exciting to see the latest baby leave the nest! Misha and I try to do our bit to live low, so as well as not having a car, we are also vegan (my diet went in that direction for health reasons before I learnt more about the unpleasant factory farming of animals), and grow food ourselves too. As a racing cyclist, being vegan is awesome – I pretty much eat whatever I want and stay at my racing weight.
