I'm Back (I think???)

[Dave7]

I got diagnosed with cancer just over 12 months ago...........I had just built up to 40 milers.
Over the 12 months...During a series of operations and treatments I lost the will/drive to cycle. Funny, I always thought of myself as strong willed but it knocked the s^*#t out of me.
Anyway.......last Sunday I dusted the bike off and did a 10 miler..........boy was my bum bone aching. Sore bum apart I really enjoyed it and am doing another one tomorrow.
So......I'm back.........I think

Good to see you back - alive and pedalling.

Hope you've got the all clear now.

Chapeau Sir

After what you've endured that's no mean feat, keep going and the miles will come

 

[Crackle]

Excellent, Well done Dave. Tour De France next, that's the pathway you know.

 

[Herzog]

Good stuff!

Great to see you back. Having seen at 1st hand, over the past 6 months, how devastating cancer affects someone, it is great that you are able to cycle even 1 mile.

All the very best

 

[young Ed]

have lost several to cancer my self so i sympathise and say just live every moment to it's fullest, not to scare you or anything!
Cheers Ed

One reason I cycle is to prove to myself that I'm still alive!

Hurt can be good or bad. Having a sore bum after cycling definitely qualifies as the former.

Congratulations!

Looking forward to hearing that you have just done 40 miles again, after you acclimatise your derrière!

Will be 3 years to get the all clear but the last camera check was possitive (as in good possitive).
Many thanks to all for the encouraging comments.
Did a 12 miler today and felt gooooood
