I think me SV is getting closer to being someone's track bike. Not mine as I'm not that good. I do however think I'll have to keep it a bit longer just to warrant the new shoes. Which I really like.

I'd still consider another SV though, but I think I have an itch to scratch first, hopefully one that doesn't kill me.

Good to see you're still about, even if you are a bit pizzed Bibs.

Dark times ahead for me

Glad to see a post from you Bibs.

Mav, that sounds ominous. Hope you're ok.

Thanks for your concern, It remains to be seen Gary, I don't know what's going on

I do know I'm off to the Pyrenees on Wednesday, which I am looking forward to

A deadly trio, each makes the others worse in a really unpleasant cycle.

Just focus on the Pyrenees for now Mav, it sounds like it could be a much needed respite.

A verse from a song written by a friend of mine.

"Despite what we call progress all my problems still remain,
Relationships, and mortgage payments coming round again.
Applying more technology just makes me realise,
We're less healthy and less satisfied, and probably less wise."
ŠN. Browning.

Thanks Gary, at least riding in the mountains means I can only think about the road going up, and going downhill I get my adrenaline rush and I have to focus entirely on that.

Love the mountains, almost as much or equally as much as I love the sea
