Sorry to hear that. You've been doing better recently.
Hope you get well soon and are well enough before the end of the month.
Fingers crossed for you.

A good idea, well done. I might try to get mine done today, I'll see how hot I get.

A sticky one today, but it's done. Hoping to get another one this month. I'll post it up later.

July 50 km ride now done I've challenged myself to do both a 50 m and 50 km ride each month that's seven down . Got this month done early due to family holiday coming up .the bike coming but now no need to chase the miles

Well folks, I'm afraid I'm going to have to bow out of the challenge for this year

On the plus side it's because of a significant move forward on my health issues that have been on going for the past 2 years. My cycling must now be daily for short periods of half an hour and I can't do 100km/h

To the five remaining, keep up the good work

Sorry to hear you can't make the challenge you done so well hanging in until now. At least your health issues are being sorted .get yourself on the right track if that means shorter rides then so be it?.

How much of a move forward is it likely to be ... a cure, or the condition just being kept under control?

Anyway - good luck, and I hope to see you posting rides in the challenge thread(s) again next year!

Condition management for the foreseeable future with 6 monthly reviews. The shorter, daily rides work things differently so whilst we learn to manage things are the best approach. On the plus side I've been told to keep up the cycling.

Rules are pretty relaxed I believe total miles within 24 hours count . More importantly if you think it should count then fair enough

Great Even if it doesn't I've got time to do it later in the month right
