Back on the bike after a while.

[Matthew_T]

Well it isnt exactly a long time but 2 days is a while for me.

I had a cold at the start of the week and missed 2 days off college but I have finished for the week now.
I am aiming to go out for a long ride tomorrow (about 30/40 miles) and was wondering how my body will cope. I feel a little bit seized up and might not be able to push myself as I normally do so are there any tips for going out after a cold?

Keep warm and well hydrated and try and avoid breathing through your mouth too much.

Don't go hell for leather and listen to your body.

Hot bath/shower on your return followed by a hearty bowl of soup or something.
