Janet Fallon

Janet is 81 and until recently had not cycled since her teens. But Janet is a believer in testing her boundaries and decided to get back in the saddle after taking part in a Cycling UK Big Bike Revival event. After a few initial wobbles, Janet was soon cycling regularly at the Walsall Arboretum Community Cycle Club. A founding member of the club, Janet welcomes and inspires others, particularly older people, to give cycling a go.

Janet is proof that by trying new things and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone, you can have fun and make new friends, as well as stay fit. A true role model to us all!

Cycling UK’s 100 Women in Cycling is an annual list celebrating inspirational women who are encouraging others to take part in this wonderful and life-enhancing activity.
