Around SBN: Win or Lose, Boston Celtics' New Big 3 Era A Success

Female, older than I care to remember, cycling fan. Living in a small town in Baden-Württemberg, Germany about 50km from the Bodensee.

Social and recreational cyclist only these days, but I'm lucky enough to live in an area where everybody cycles and there is an excellent network of cycle routes. I can get pretty much everywhere I want to go without spending more than about 200m on roads.

Other interests include walking in the Alps (used to be climbing, but alas those days have gone) and Ballroom and Latin dancing.

Job - freelance project management consultant and I take photographs.

Cycling likes - really steep mountains and anyone who attacks.

a fan of

Bayern München Soccer Team
