Andy Murray column: Biking around Box Hill, playing the US Open & Battle of the Brits

Like most people during the lockdown period, I discovered an interest that I'd never really tried before - road cycling.

I had been training at home, in between trying to keep the kids occupied and entertained (not easy), when my father-in-law lent me his spare road bike.

It was a great way to help build my fitness and I enjoyed it, so my wife bought me a bike for my birthday.

I've been out quite a bit on routes fairly close to where I live in Surrey ever since. I usually ride for 60-90 minutes and one of my favourite rides is Box Hill, a famous route in the Surrey Hills, where the Olympic cyclists rode during London 2012.
