Andy, no-i am going Aero on the next bike. Long story cut short is a bike shop local to you took a deposit on my preferred Aero bike last week and then still managed to sell it. Last one as well. Bit crap so still looking but may just wait for new models and try and haggle a deal. I wanted it for Girona trip at end of march.

That wouldn't be Rutland would it? silly beggars. I might be making up a town bike with Tripster AT frame, firstly going single speed then alfine 11 hub later when wheels get built

Brrrrr, it's cold out there Couple of inches of snow. Not really cycling weather .... best stay on Zwift today

Ironically today is the only day this week I've been able to get out in the real world (due to ice and snow).

It is rather parky though

That’s great news

About as good as it could be -- that pathology summary made my day.

Got on the bike briefly yesterday, turned over the pedals a few times just to verify everything felt ok. Expecting to ride very gently the next two weeks, earliest I'd be clear to open things up and sweat a little would be Feb 13.

Only just seen this @JLaw - sounds really positive, thanks for sharing this great news and hope you're back up to speed again on the bike soon

Signed up for stage 1 at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. Gonna be a big rush for me to get wife up and dressed and ready for this but I'll give it a go. Won't have any time to breakfast before riding, and not used to riding in fasted state, so could be interesting!

On a weight loss front, on the scales last night I dabbled very briefly with 81.9 kg before the scales moved up to 82.4kg (my scales tease me, they start at a number then slowly creep up before setting ). Saturday is 'cheat day' so cake is on the cards (if I can get out to waitrose later in the day) so not expecting to get down to a 81.x just yet. This is my target for the end of Feb so very pleasing I'm nearly there on the first day

 

[CXRAndy]

see you in the morning, if ive shaken off the curry night hiccup

 

[Breedon]

Doing stage 1 at 8 or 9pm which is worst case scenario, hoping it's earlier

 

[berty bassett]

Gonna try stage 7 I think tomorrow - hopefully with fresh legs , think it’s the best chance I stand to catch up then stage 8 sun and 1 on Monday

Well done!
I dabbled with 75 kilos today but 2 topics, peanuts and double helpings at dinner and 1/2 a cheeky white have put paid to that! Weekly weigh in tomorrow so shall see what damage has been done
