From one sport to the next!

For about 12 years i have been playing football until recently i had a change of heart but why?
first of all i had the passion for football still in my heart but wasn't achieving much really ok, my team got promoted 2 years on the trot and in a cup final after being together for only 2 years good achievement but it wasn't that, that was really bothering me the people's attitudes towards me i didn't feel like a team player i felt more like a number and even though i was a key player for my team i recently left them after a couple of weeks thinking what to do!!
I bought a tourer(bike) to go to and from work. i had averaged about 24 mintues into work and travelled 6 mile into work, i was getting into this plus i was watching the Tour De France so i was itching more and more to get out there on my bike but how and who with. No-one better than someone that has travelled across europe on his own raising money for a new mini bus for Acorns trust, my mom's partner Geoff. Geoff and i have known each other since i was about 12 he used to coach me playing football and made me into the player that i was.
