100 Words from Matthew Welton

What I remember about physics is that each thing has its own properties.

Fit a bike with rubber tyres, you might get the occasional puncture but you’ll have a generally comfortable ride.

Stay away from the A-roads and you stay away from the traffic, plus you’ll probably get an uninterrupted view of uninterrupted village lanes.

A film that shows the everyday life of an East Midlands city might, when seen in an East Midlands cinema, demonstrate something you’d have to be there to understand.

Put the effort into riding your bike uphill, you get to freewheel down the other side.

100 Words from Ian

For me cycling is freedom.
Freedom from work, freedom from screens, freedom from being stuck in an office/car/bus.
I hate seeing other people cycle when I’m not; I just want to be out there with them.
My favourite cycling terrain is the mountains; I love the challenge of me against the gradient. I hate cycling in the wind; all the effort for little reward. Rain doesn’t really bother me but I’d like someone else to clean my bike!
Now my kids cycle too and a whole new world has opened up; cycling as a family. Different, but just as good.

Dr Ian Murdey
