I've tried paracetamol,pseudoephedrine,and 2 pints of 8.6% MTFU,and I'm still whining,but thanks for the sympathy,it's nice to know you can rely on STW.

Feel your pain been working towards the trans Wales managed to do my hamstring off the bike for over a week got the crc marathon on Sunday gone from feeling fit and confident to like pants!!
Chill it's a few months off yet!! That's what I tell myself anyway 😆
If you've already put in some miles you'll be fine, it will only put you out of action for a couple of weeks
A bottle of red wine will kill those nasty bugs. Works for me.

what the gold braided one said
I was pretty unfit when I started training,and am now up to 30 miles in a day with full kit,at about 8-9 mph off road,would like to get up to 50 miles a day,so it doesn't take forever,so don't like to lose a week.

Vicks First Defence is your friend. Use it at the first hint of a cold and it usually stops it dead.
It's a cold, give a couple of days and you'll be back on the bike.
unlike the chaps above, I have sympathy for you. as I too have a stinking cold and cough and am missing a much looked forward to ride in the Lakes tomorrow with dear friends, on dry trails.
