Name Paul Dytham Year of birth 1978 Main cycling activities Audax (long distance cycling) and the occasional TT Hobbies outside of cycling Cars, squash, music, real ale drinking Best cycling moment Riding into Chepstow having ridden 625km to Anglesey and back in 37 hours, which completed my first Audax SR series and meant I qualified for Paris-Brest-Paris 1200km. (May 2007) Worst cycling moment Being forced to abandon Paris-Brest-Paris after 710km with food poisoning. (August 2007) Favourite food Crisps, green olives, coffee Best excuse for poor performance In time trials – because I don’t do enough or train for them! On an audax – either because I kept up with the really fast bunch for the first 50km then suffered later, or because I skipped a café stop. Favourite music Everything. Jazz, blues, rock, indie, hip hop, drum & bass, northern soul, classical…easier to say I detest country, opera and modern R ‘n’ B. Training tip If you want to go faster, practice going fast. If you want to go further, do more miles…and buy a Brooks saddle! Carbon or Titanium? My ‘race’ bike is aluminium. My audax bike is steel. Both have carbon forks and titanium stems. If I had the money, however, I’d be talking to Merlin or Litespeed about a Ti frame. Turbo or Road? Rain & scenery every time. |
