► The pandemic has seen a bit of a biking boom- as many of us turn to cycling to try to avoid public transport.
But one man from Northumberland was there well before any of us. Because he started in 1946. Now 93, Ron Longstaff shows no sign of putting the brakes on his hobby.

You are a legend mate!! keep turning those pedals over, never stop
you are an inspiration sir
INSPIRATION TO YOUNGER GENERATION👏🇮🇳
What an inspiration, this man is a legend.
Wow. You sir are an inspiration. I've got 40 years to make it to your level of performance. With God's grace I pray I too will be cycling for many years to come. Wishing you tailwinds and many more years of cycling enjoyment. Once again....wow.
You, sir, are an inspiration and legend. Chapeau.
He states "it is freedom..."
If biking makes one free and less in a funk then do it.
Ron Longstaff graceful, great cyclist!
He rides 3x more miles than I do per week. But it is only fair considering that I am 31 and he is 93. He had 3x more time to train...
what a legend.
I'd love to think I can keep going on my bike until then. Ron has a great attitude & is clearly still passionate about his cycling.
He is older than me, but we have the same spirit. I never want to give up. Riding a bike makes me feel 16 again, why would I ever want to stop? Currently riding 55-60 miles a day. I hope to bump that up when the weather cools a little. 95F degree heat is kind of hard at times. Keep on keepin on. 🚴♂
Nice🎉 I myself am not inspired to cycle in rain or all kinds of weather but I try to get out 3-4 x a week 😊
Respekt....Respekt......mach weiter so....😊😊😊😊
Is that a Carlton you were riding in your younger days ?
Well done man keep up the good work. As you said age is just a number
sharp as ever !
Sir you are a beast!
Love it!
BRAVO!!!!!!!!!
thats what i call a cyclist.. not even using an e-bike. respect
All weather lightning and rain
Awesome i will be doing the same on a mountain bike at your age 29 years from now. Mountain biking is safer (cross country)
Mountain bikes are awesome, I bought one the other week, it’s been fun.
All those accidents and stitches to the head and still doesnt even wear a helmet. Fair play for being so active but its stupid to not wear a helmet.
What a legend, but please wear a helmet 🙏🏼
