Numb Bum is a understatement, I've got matching Numb Cream Crackers

Got a couple of 11K's on the exercise bike at high resistance, averaging 83 RPM .
Going to the Doc's about the High Blood Pressure, so the over laden ship has finally left the port.

Ooooo John you do need a good sorting out. See what the Doc says and take it from there.

I hope we can addcolour and inspiration but you are free to tell us to get on our bikes!!!

Some might say I need a "Fixie"
Nothing like a bit of Group Therapy to get a few more tools on board for the Job to get done.

'pyours !
Meanwhile - some progress

Just came back from standard ride to Llanbedr DC church & back. 1 hr 12 m 30s , avg pulse 135. Felt pretty good to 50mins, so that's a distinct improvement on Sunday. Got cold feet though , I was glad I''d put on a t-shirt under the long-sleeved top with the Helly vest, also the thermal longs. Very thin NE breeze blowing.
Pic below shows a flavour of the lower half of the route, it's mostly on the B-road that joins up with the main Ruthin/Mold road by the church with the tower.

You and Ray have got some funny named places round your neck of the woods haven't you

I didn't get out today, raining hard pretty much all day. I did a vintage 70's piccie of one of DIY'd bikes, look at them handlebars! 70's-tastic!

Single rear brake (fitted to the right hand!), no front.... fearless and gormless at the same time.

Cripes you were svelte back then

Did you not have any clippers to trim the rear brake cable ?

Dave the bass · Post by **Dave the bass** » Fri Mar 30, 2018 9:40 pm

I did, but they were blunt.....after doing my hair....

Are you sure that's a picture of you Dave; not sure the transformation to how you are today is tenable.

I don't remember you wearing slippers when we rode the two tunnels either.
