Do it on your terms at your pace, & you're not a once a year skyride nodder so you know how to pace a full distance ride properly, but maybe have someone on standby to pick you up if you do feel a bit iffy.


& scope out the nice looking cafes and pubs on street view at regular intervals for a cup of tea and a slice of cake if you need to.

Sounds like you may have had Cellulitis ? I've had this 3 times in the last 5 years or so, each time on my leg from a bite. Whilst I felt fine, I was in fact quite depleted of energy if I tried and over did it, for a while after in fact.....

Alex Dowsett did the UK TT championship today. 27 miles. After lap one he got stung by a wasp on the inside of his thigh. He's now the UK champion and took a 3 1/2 minutes lead out ofr 2nd place. Stings aren't all bad....

If you feel fine and handle antibiotics without complications, I'd follow the doctor's opinion as a cyclist and not his opinion as a GP.

[QUOTE 3764542, member: 76"]I would do it, but 5 weeks ago I cycled home after crashing a mountain bike with a broken rib, split lip, broken teeth, cut tongue and little finger broken in 3 places and pointing the wrong way.

It's not that far anyway is it?[/QUOTE]
