82 Year old Lifelong Cyclist needs encouragement
« on: 01 November, 2022, 08:25:54 pm »
A bit cheeky but, my friend Larry, 82, has cycled all his life. He had a nasty crash a few weeks ago and although healing well it has really knocked his confidence to the extent that he is talking of giving it up.
He has been an absolute inspiration to me and I'd love to repay him.
I've recorded a 45 second message, and am hoping to get anyone from the general cycling community to gee him up with an encouraging message in the video's comments section.
Obviously this link will take you straight to youtube and if that's not your thing then no problem , but please consider it, he is a brilliant old fella and it would be such a shame if he stopped.
HERE IS THE VIDEO LINK Thank You

I was at the Scottish Cycling conference yesterday and I met a 91 year old lady who was still cycling. I would she is definitely an inspiration.
I am often asked, what does YOAV stand for? It stands for Yoav On A Velo
