Went out for an early ride this morning. Past Meadowhell, no stopping!! Happy with the 22 miles. Not happy with a 'roadie' coming past me up a hill as though I was stopped! Bloody show of... read more

Could have took the easy route and caught the X57 to mum and dads to pick up the car but thought I might as well just get the trusty Cube out and go on a quick explore on the way there. Wowsers! To... read more

Still not feeling great but the sun was out and I would feel guilty if I didn't have a ride. Flamin' loads of mud about so clean the bike AGAIN!

Wow, what a difference a couple of days make and a look at the data. No wonder I wasn't enjoying the ride Tuesday. It's a constant gradient and the wind was against me! So today, similar ... read more

First ride for weeks and weeks! Some things I realise. How quickly you lose your level of fitness. No matter how good your bike is, it's you that is in charge and if you're not going to p... read more

No persuading needed as soon as the sun came out. Headed for a combi ride, on/off road. Mud on my legs from the sloppy bits smells particularly like horse crap!

I have not much passion at the moment. Maybe because I'm busy or maybe because I am way overdue my B12 injection! The latest sets of pics have shamed me into going out on the bike again. Once ... read more

Because of a stomach operation I had 3 years ago, it leaves me with a B12 deficiency so I am supposed to have 1 every 3 months.
B12, also called cobalamin, is a water soluble vitamin naturally produced by a gut bacteria that feeds on the cobalt of the soil (hence the name ‘cobalamin’). This vitamin helps the body to properly form red blood cells, grow tissues, replicate DNA.12 months ago • Like
