    Great story. Great motivation. I started cycling this year as I'm obese myself and I'm afraid what my future holds on the path I'm on now. I owe it to my wife, my 2 little boys, and I owe it to myself.

    Incredible story - what was your overall weight loss. What bike did you use at first and what was your training schedule?

    The people at sky need a huge pat on the back for this video. Phil Jones is one of the best people you could ever wish to call your best friend. The film is a fitting way to round off this amazing journey. Its been a priviledge to be part of this wonderful story. Im sure we will have more stories to tell. We aint finished yet. Well done big fella .Thank you also goes to Sir Chris Hoy for meeting with phil. He makes sure he tells us regularly that he is friends with Sir Chris lol. Well done again Phil u deserve it mate.
