Craig has been mentioned a few times on the blog already but under a variety of names and from the wrong hometown! apologies Craig, mistakes now corrected! (note to self: must employ a fact checker). Craig was spotted at the Hanger of Anger this week giving his bike some serious abuse on the turbo.
Craig says "First things first - to set the record straight - My name is Craig Marshall and I am from Grangemouth. After reading the WLC blog people will think I am Chris Marshall from Bo'ness!!!! Not to worry, I have been called alot worse.
I have been cycling for the last couple of years mostly to keep fit and get out and about in the fresh air. My trusty Carrera has served me well over the last couple of years but will be relegated to a winter/training bike as I have just ordered a TREK 1.9c - I can't wait for it to arrive.
This year I am aiming to do the Clarion Rad Tour, Etape, Northern Rock Cyclone and Pedal for Scotland. Given my intentions for this year I felt it was time to get involved in a club to help improve my fitness and to cycle in a group. I thought I was quite fit until I joined the WLC and realised I have a bit (alot) of work to do yet!!!!
I don't have a favourite route as such, I just enjoy getting out on the bike especially into the hills above Falkirk and Linlithgow."
