Social biking groups

Lesley from Bishopdale

I have seen them out and about but not sure how to find out where to join them - would anyone know of any social biking groups for seniors in and around the Bishopdale and surrounding areas? I can go by myself for a ride, but it would be nice to go along with a group of people.

Freed from food and exercise

I've had an eating problem as long as I can remember. I would steal food, and money to get food. I was ashamed and had no idea why I did it. As a teenager, I didn't want to be overweight, so I tried to eat healthily at first and then tried to eat as little as possible. I also exercised to control my weight. All these things stopped working by the time I was twenty-one years old.

The constant thinking about food and losing weight made me ring for help from a Twelve Step recovery group. I found people that I knew had a solution for me. I tackled the programme – meetings, a food plan, the Steps, a sponsor and service – through hard work and trying to do it perfectly.
