Hello from the East Suffolk uplands

[Penttithefinn]

Hi all, new to the forum, but have been lurking for sometime, and expecting my first ebike soon. Similarly to quite a few vintage (sounds better than older) cyclists, I have been tempted over to the dark side by a list of muscular skeletal problems, which take some of the fun from off road cycling on a clockwork bike.
So having got rid of my road bike, and hopefully all the arrogant, self opinionated bike and medical experts which lurk in their forums, is there a space for those of us who occasionally need medical/health/bike advice without having our arses ripped?
TIA

Welcome,

No guarantee you won't get your arse ripped here .. But there's plenty who will offer to rub it better for you ..

Woodbridge, I usually ride solo in the Tangham / Rendlesham area, occasionally (slowly) on the Viking trail.

Hello & welcome ..
I must admit that I was intrigued by your location ..East Suffolk Uplands ..Im usually pretty good at geography and wondered how I had missed this mountain range in the south ?
I was truly disappointed to learn that its flat as the pancake I've just eaten ..

The town where I live is almost 50m above sea level !!!, I was always told that Witch Pit Farm on the A12 which is very close by was one of the three highest places in the whole of Suffolk........so yes it's the Uplands

Not far away in Long Melford ...about 300 ft above the sea but could be fooled into thinking the sea has got nearer.!!!!
If you fancy a very muddy ride out give me a shout .....bet the old railway line is pretty sticky after all the walkers.

Looks as if we might have a local group brewing up here....
