Sorry to hear that. Hope your back is getting better.

3rd March
https://www.strava.com/activities/507632606 - 51.5km Altrincham - Chelford & return. Isn't it annoying when the weather forecast says no rain until 12 noon, so the ride is planned to end by 11.45 and it actually starts pouring down at 10.15 at the point when you're furthest away from home

I hope I have the correct thread this time!
