I think the suggestion for cake/coffee rides with wife and youngsters is a good one, plus watch out for one of Skolly's MTB rides, possibly at a venue near you (well, Wales anyway)
It's the cake and beer I need to work off with something!

If anything could tempt me back.......Surely the lure of Rhyl next May will prove too great?
Just not felt the love this year. All my cycling has felt like a chore. Don't think I've managed a single ride over about 35miles, no consistency and I've ridden just for basic fitness.
I did a little tour of Anglesey with Mrs C which I soured my way through but nothing else has grabbed me, so time to ditch it and do something else. I may do some stuff on the mtn bike and I might try running again. If the running works out and it doesn't want to make me scratch my eyeballs out, I might aim for the Anglesey half marathon next April but it's two years since I've run and I don't think my knees are getting any better, so......
Anyway, it's a feeling of relief to just sack it off now and do something else. Happens sometimes and I'm not going to fight it.
Oh yeah, she'll carry on, commuting mainly and she's just come back from Kent and a tour with a friend.My sympathies are with you.
I've managed only 293 miles this year and have struggled with my mileage since my illness two years back when I was averaging around 2500 pa.
It's a bugger of an activity to get excited about - I find it hard to do so.
Good luck with your break, sorry to hear about your dogs paw.
Is Mrs Crackle going to carry on cycling on her new bike?
PS: if you've got time on your hands I can think of something that you could do.....
