    Re: Todays Bike Ride

    Two cross races for me this weekend, Saturday and Sunday... Sunday went remarkably well, considering I was really struggling Saturday and not feeling 100%... Ribs still healing too and the effort put in on Saturday made my sternum pain flare up again. Initially I was disheartened about it, but a mate told me on Sunday: probably because you were able to breathe harder, so it is a bit achey, will be better today and he was right Had a lot less difficulty breathing yesterday than I have had so far 2nd lady and highest up in the biggest field so far: 91 entries :-O It was mayhem at the start, especially as someone on a MTB had ridden into my back wheel during the recce lap and bent the rear mech. I had not noticed that until I tried changing gear on a steep pull up, riding out of the saddle, and the chain came off with such force, it came out of the chaincatcher! I had to do a quick and frantic repair and was trailing behind the field as they started when I was still tinkering...

    Look after yourself Daz

    I am in the wars too... been feeling wobbly all day with dizzy spells, then my back decides to play up, just now the ribs and shoulder are getting better... There always seems to be something so no chaingang for me tonight... or hurdle/dismount/remount practice...
