Well my contribution to our team has taken rather a set back. I came off the bike yesterday and am now in hospital awaiting a pin to be placed into my femur as it has cracked at the top end. Bummer - at least 10 weeks off the bike!!!

Thanks Adrian, I was supposed to be heading off to Sardinia this morning for a supported tour of the island with 10 other cyclists. I am feeling a little peeved. Oh well, the surgeon is quite hopeful.

Wow, sorry to hear that. Hope it heals up quick and you get back on the bike sooner rather then later

Oh, crap! That sounds very painful. Is it the the head of the femur, the ball bit? All the best, hope it heals quickly.

potsy, wow, I don't think I've ever been a target before! And I'm slacking a bit recently, you're in with a chance. Mind you, now I know I'm being chased, I might have to put a spurt on! ;)

Damn I shouldn't have told you for a few more weeks,my plan might be foiled now :tongue:
TBH your total is only 300ish miles short of my target for the year so you should be safe

Oh, it's no good trying to lull me into a false sense of security...

Actually, I need a bit of a kick. With the light starting to fail in the evenings, I'm finding it harder to make myself do the extra on the way home. And some slightly disturbed work patterns are meaning I don't always get extra on the way in either - Tuesday, I didn't even ride in at all, as I got picked up by the vehicle in town.

I'm off for a weekend in Northumberland next weekend, but I expect I'll go on the social short rides, rather than anything too extreme.

Consider yourself kicked then Arch

Agree Arch, I dont think I will catch her now I've had too many distractions (weekends away, birthday bashes, fortnight of injury, working away in scotland) to even stand a chance of that.

Was fun staying around that mileage though while it lasted!
