Forced rest!

I don’t get sick that often so when I do I am not a very happy camper. I have been sick with some sore of tummy bug the past four days, and just cannot quite shake it.

I was supposed to ride with Paul Egan and Martyn Ellis (guest rider) on Saturday, but had to cancel that one.  I ended up getting up on Sunday morning for our LBB ride to Cleveland, but was worse for wear.  We stopped a little over halfway at the Cleveland lighthouse where I thought I may phone a friend to come and collect me!  Me being me though I decided I would ride home and did make it, but felt very shaky at some points!! Still managed 80km for the day, but was hoping for more.LBB Cleveland Jan14

Good to see Paul Egan out there smashing out the kilometres after his hip flexor injury.  Rode a rather wet river loop with him on Friday, and also ran into Peter Oost out on the roads too, so he joined us for the remainder of the river loop.

Have managed to rack up 300km for last week. This coming week is a strength and climbing week, so more effort needed this week at around 450km and 4,600m climbing. Ouch!
