Poet
Summer, Buddy Holly, the working folly
Good golly Miss Molly and boats
Hammersmith Palais, the Bolshoi Ballet
Jump back in the alley and nanny goats
18-wheeler Scammels, Domenecker camels
All other mammals plus equal votes
Seeing Piccadilly, Fanny Smith and Willy
Being rather silly, and porridge oats
A bit of grin and bear it, a bit of come and share it
You're welcome, we can spare it - yellow socks
Too short to be haughty, too nutty to be naughty
Going on 40 - no electric shocks
The juice of the carrot, the smile of the parrot
A little drop of claret - anything that rocks
Elvis and Scotty, days when I ain't spotty,
Sitting on the potty - curing smallpox

Haha thanks, had a Ant+ drop out for about 20 seconds and then a bit later had my chain come off the rear cog managed to get it back on so i could of got a pb for the full climb

Jeff, any mention of the C word is going to have us all concerned for you. But it sounds like they have been monitoring the mass for a while to be sure and this is the right time to cut it out. Do you have a date for the operation yet? Stay strong mate.

Either Nov 7 or Nov 14. Trying to coordinate a change in meds prior to surgery is the source of uncertainty.

Open surgery seems to be the best option, so rather than a few weeks out, I'm probably off the bike for at least 6 weeks, perhaps longer.

Thanks everyone for the thoughts and encouragement. I'll check in after everything's done... Going to shoot for the start of the year to be back on the trainer.

As not in work today may try the ride slightly earlier, maybe 5 o'clock. Not sure yet ...... will see.

Looking at the race this morning, I'm estimating my time will be somewhere between 32 to 35 mins. Apart from the reverse KoM climb, the rest of the course is rolling and so drafting will help. I'll be looking at fast out of the pen, draft to the KoM, attack the KoM and attack again on the descent, get in a group and hang on to the finish.
