Welcome to the personal blog of Robert A J Ford, a professional interface developer based in the UK.
I started this blog in 2007 to record my cycling training leading up to the Etape. I've never been one for diaries but this format works well with my job and lifestyle so I expanded it to record details of other training and events.
