Since taking part in the Challenge, Jane has started cycling nine miles into work on some days on an old bike.

“We decided that we should all take part, get a bit fitter and develop some more team spirit. Only half of us are ‘regular’ cyclists, so it was good fun to encourage the ‘newbies’ to join in.

“I do try and promote a healthy lifestyle among my staff. I think the Challenge was a great idea and I urged all my staff to sign up. It was great that a third of our participants were new to cycling, encouraged to ride by their colleagues. Personally I am hooked and I’ll definitely carry on cycling...
