I finished 34 sessions of radiotherapy last Wednesday and I've just returned from my first (gentle) ride in one piece.
Now all I have to do is regain some fitness and some of the stone and half of weight I've lost. ๐

Being back riding is great news Dibbs ๐
The fitness etc will come in time, I'm sure.
[edit] try spinning a bit more 60 is pretty low cadence ๐
As i'm lost for words I hope you'll be happy to make do with a bloody big ๐ from all at MM Towers!
Good on you! ๐
nice one mate.
60 is pretty low cadence
It's a pretty steep hill and I ran out of gears ๐
I was pleased to get up there without stopping. ๐
you're forgiven then ๐
Nice one Dibbs keep up the good work mate & we must have a 'remission riders' ride on the Q's sometime soon .... as long as you wait for me @ the top of the hill ๐
the stone and half of weight I've lost
No one likes a gloater.

Great news!
Fantastic work mate.
Bravo .
Well done as someone whose had treatment I know it can be tough to get fit again, hang in there and listen to your body. Remember that your body's been though a lot and that rest is a valid part of your training/fitness plan! ๐
Wow - that's fantastic news
i can't even imagine how the first 5 minutes of riding must have felt - good on you pal ๐
I got a spare stone you can have ๐ณ
Well done though
I've got a few (ahem ๐ณ ) lbs you can have too
Good news fella
Slaps back in a not too hard sort of way ๐
Putting weight back on is brilliant. More cream on your breakfast cereal? I think I might just thank you
I don't think I could have done better as I am just trying to get back into it and I haven't just finished radio therapy.
Spectacularly good news, have to see if I can keep up.
Dibbs , Im willing to bet you can still kick my butt around the Qs ! Chuffed for you mate.
Awesome news! Well done fella!
Presumably you won't need lights for night-riding then !34 sessions of radiotherapy
Congratulations on getting through that lot
Like
nice one
I've just got back from my second ride, it's taken me 4 days to recover from the first (easy) ride ๐ณ hopefully it won't take so long this time.
The radiotherapy has killed a lot of my saliva glands and the dry mouth is quite unpleasant, I think the Camelback will be needed even on short rides.

Well done that man.
You've done more miles in a day than I have in a week. ๐
