I was NEG SW a few years ago but found the time commitment tricky when working full time. Will possibly join again once I retire. Did all sorts - cycle racing, Tri's, Car Park Marshall. Was getting lined up for the Tour of Great Britain which is a level up and bikes supplied by a sponsor (BMW or Yamaha) but I finished before this started. NEG riders do get invited to take part in Elite events, even the TDeF, which would be great to be involved in.
