Meet The Member: Josh | British Cycling

No matter how many bikes you have, you always got to have one more. My name’s Josh and I’ve been a British cycling member for three years. Work for Big Mo Cycle Insurance. That’s how I came across British cycling. Someone I work with recommend getting a gravel bike. It’s been a bit of road, a bit of going off-road. That was one of the things that then clicked for me. Here we go. I was going to my dad. We went to do the Camino weight. We only had a certain amount of time I could do this walk in. And so I said, “Why don’t we cycle some of it?” And I think me and my dad together and separately got so much enjoyment out of it that we both just kind of pursued little bits and bobs. You know, this is a real shared experience and it’s a father and you know, all that kind of stuff brings you together. It’s not just the cycling, it’s all the things in between that kind of made that journey. That sounds like hard work. It is hard work. It is hard work, but it’s worthwhile. No, I know. Yeah, it’s quite peaceful and you know you can you can sit and enjoy the silence and one might ride ahead, one might ride back but when you join up you know you just you have this kind of conversations that you know on a bike it’s great and you’re exercising in the fresh air. I think one of the things cycling is just doing it. So there’s all kinds of ebikes nowadays and like cycle to work schemes. I think if you if you’re interested in doing it just do it and the rest will follow. What is my favorite British cycling member benefit? Oh, what what could that be? Obviously, we do 10% discount on our really good insurance. I think of my favorite benefits is that you do a discount on coffee.
