What is a mamil? It’s a newish term for a Middle Aged Man in Lycra. I proudly identify as one!
Whilst I was a keen cyclist in my childhood and early adulthood, I lapsed for many years, finally catching the bug again in 2016.
Since then I have ridden thousands of km for fun and exercise, as well as raising thousands of dollars for various charities (Great cycle challenge, Brisbane to the Bay etc)
We moved to the Brisbane region in 2025 and I have really enjoyed finding my way around the network of cycle routes.
