Comment by Andrew M on May 23, 2012 at 10:45: did another hour of non-stop freestyle last night - lots of very achy muscles today.

Comment by Dave, Lewiston on May 22, 2012 at 20:25: Thanks for keeping the ride updates going, Andrew. Just think of all that stuff as cross-training in preparation for your return to the saddle :)

For me, the SOB ride was going pretty well - until Dale went aero. We need to take those aero bars away from him, I think (as does Pete).

Comment by Mark Prior on May 22, 2012 at 16:11: Weather looking good now. Probably need a jacket and tights but otherwise good.

Comment by Dale (rouleur) Riggs on May 22, 2012 at 13:21: Weather not great a bit drizzly. Will have to improve from here otherwise it's the SAG wagon for me. Cold + Wet + Dark does not = FUN.

Comment by Andrew M on May 22, 2012 at 1:39: alas, no. Went to physio today, she told me to stay off the bike for 4 more weeks (!), have a big list of exercises for patella tracking. Swimming to stay fit - did an hour of non-stop freestyle tonight - haven't swum a stroke since my achilles tendonitis last year, I forgot how badly bike fitness translates to swim fitness! An amazing workout but definitely not as much fun as sobr!

The good news is that my knee feels fine, and the outlook is good. Just got to be careful with bone injuries.

See you all soon! I'll keep posting these rides and look forward to my comeback! :)

Comment by Mark Prior on May 22, 2012 at 1:01: Andrew I take it you're still not allowed on the bike.

Comment by john mills on May 21, 2012 at 21:30: Same with me Pete. If I do the ride I am going to let you 'speedies' go on ahead and try my 'no drafting' philosophy. Just means I will have to work a whole lot harder, and hopefully work off an extra iced coffee or chockie bar lol.

Comment by Pete Roberts on May 21, 2012 at 20:30: Weather dependant on my attendance. If it's not pissing down, then I will be at the Southern end tomorrow.
