ABOUT ME
(Anna McNuff)
A sport loving, cake baking, outdoor fiend - I'm mad-keen on all forms of endurance exercise. If there's a whiff of adventure in the air, I'm all over it like a fox on a binbag.
In 2009 I discovered cycling. After pedalling a few hundred miles through Wales, then Scotland, across the Alps, and from London to Paris, I fell head over heels in love with seeing the world on two wheels.
Working for a large company who support and promote cycling in the UK, I've seen first hand how it can transform lives. It builds friendships, instills confidence and almost always leads to individuals achieving things they never thought possible. It's official; Cycling's the new sliced bread, and I'm on a mission to butter it.
