The warning sign is the onset of angina.
I already have heart disease DP so it does not surprise me to get the odd episode.
Last time I did what the GP suggested I went to A&E and they diagnosed indigestion.
Forgive me therefore if I seem reluctant to see my GP.
The only thing he ever seems to do is stick his finger somewhere and I'm getting a little tired of that or tell me I seem perfectly heaithy and how amazed he is how well I have come on in fitness since having stents fitted.
I will then have a range of blood tests which will all come back as normal.

Edit: My work colleague had one a couple of years back and they have done away with treadmill and just inject you with a drug that induces the same results.

Just make sure that the next time the GP sticks his finger somewhere you don't feel both his hands on your shoulders...

Edit: Whoops, off the road, bypassed the gutter and headfirst into the ditch...

Congrats TT! I envy you. 3rd or it it 4th attempt for me and another rejection. It seems so personal! I have been ranting about it with others and we will do what friends have done-that is ride it or at least the Surrey Hills bit once the roads are closed at 4am. Seems lots did it last year.
Anyway, I have the long sleeve top which came in the post today and anyone is welcome to it if they will cover postage

Come up and do the Lincolnshire Sportive in May we will have you gammy knee and all.

What Sportive is that SV8? BTW have you been knocking about Cranwell?

Get out of the big smoke(literally) and come and see big sky county

Did WC S7 today.

I have a couple of theories one of which is the Lime Juice I have been drinking with hot water instead of caffeine drinks as there is a possibility it is interacting with my satins.
.

I know underlying concern could be serious, but just to lift your mood. I pictured in my mind a very fetching rider in colourful outfit with your mis-spell

There is also a little issue the way my mind works

Ha!
I live near Crystal Palace once renowned for big skies and the cleanest air in that London!

When was that, 12th century. Black snot experience with most cities these days. I do like London to visit but just couldn't face living or commuting in any city or big town. We are moving again in the next couple of years having bought a dream plot in Rutland. I will miss Lincolnshire though. Rutland does remind me of Yorkshire a little, greatest county in the UK

I see an argument brewing

No bkooling for me until Sunday as I'm setting off down to the People's Republic of Yorkshire...

If I can stay with you at the start I think that's a great idea. Once we get going stage 9 is quite flat I think so good for constantly slingshotting each other's draft!

New target at 11.52 for stage 9, not from me I hasten but hopefully a slower start. Looks like we have a free ride to get behind before swooping to the finish line to kill off any future opposition!

Look out for the hill - Neville holt! That will blow the Lincolnshire dust out of your lungs

Wow, that's quick! 583 watts apparently

That guy's the same weight as me which means I'm going to have to find an extra 200 watts from somewhere!! (Or some extremely efficient drafting )

That will be a nice little ride from where we are going. Does it have a nice cafe? Look at those lovely country lanes all around

That should be fine. I reckon he caught my ghost up and rested before blasting the last 5km at around 600 watts.... we can do the same and then draft his high speed effort and out sprint on the final 200m

There is a perfect cafe near I think it is called venteux cafe Something like that. Some lovely rides around there but I think think the road engineers made a point of going up the little short sharp shocks rather than going around them !
