CYCLING'S MR AVERAGE

Mr Average mystery man

How old are you? How long have you been riding? Do you use a heart rate monitor? Do you think you are overweight? These are just some of the burning questions that keep the CW Fitness team awake at night.

We can take an educated guess to obtain some answers, but there was only one way to find out for certain ? create CW?s biggest ever fitness survey and ask you directly. Our aim was to build up a picture of what the average rider is like in 2007.
