Today's Bike Ride

That looks juicy Eavesy, can't work out what it is though? Doesn't look like the regular Giant track bike?

12 mile ride to work was at least 85% safer with the schools shut and no crazed parents on the road. Lovely quiet ride! not looking forward to hauling my rucksack over Monks Road to Hayfield for a Pennine run later though...

Rode 6 miles (round trip) to physio appointment

Then post swim 11 miles feeling good - realized that wasn't as unfit as I thought when I remembered to check my tyre pressure (how schoolgirl can you get??)

Rest day for me, after 5 consecutive hard days... will be interesting to see how I do tomorrow, on an even harder set on the turbo... already started to notcie the difference last night!

Got knocked off my bike today by some nobheads near my sisters. Thought it was funny to swerve at me to try and shit me up but ended up clipping my back tyre and sending me flying into a parked car. Cut up like a bloody cake now. Grrrr

Think it's next years bike, looks to be based on the SL Advanced. And thanks for the help with the back issues, much appreciated.

Rode 12 miles to work and then the 10 from work to Hayfield. Climbed Monks Road from Broadbottom, with a heavy pack on my back, I'm not ashamed to admit that I nearly got off up Chapel Brow!

Managed to stay on the bike and was rewarded with a fantastic descent in to Hayfield and the first leg of the Mini Trans Pennine relay. Got a lift back to Manchester.

Be careful out there Tom and everyone else!!!

I got knocked off my bike at Easter, thought I got away with some scrapes and bruises and the shock, but transpires I damaged my shoulder, probably worse than it feels even... Looks like a severe tear that needs an operation to repair it... Been told to expect to be out of ANY action for about a year
