I built dirt jumps, was probably more fun and more productive than riding in the rain and wind

All of my bikes are in < 100% build state except the road bike so no riding for me today ๐Ÿ™ Did a bit of shopping and visited my parents with my wife instead. Here's hoping that the postman delivers parts to complete my various builds this week, or Merlin pull one out of the bag and deliver my new Malt in record time.

Put my back out building the framework for my new shed yesterday I have spent most of today swallowing painkillers and groaning.

I am now halfway down my 1st bottle of Doctor Timothy Taylors finest Pale ale back medicine with another 3 to go ๐Ÿ˜€

Went climbing on my wall instead, couldn't be bothered to get up and want to get rid of illness before kicking hell out of myself again

Having finally got rid of my cough and got my asthma under control, I now seem to have tonsillitis. Bum. No riding other than commuting for me for a while, I think.

No bikes built (4 frames in the house and none built...sad) so went to Wakehurst place with the family and ate beetroot & orange cake; sounds bad but tasted lovely

I didn't - went to B&Q, fitted some window locks, reorganised my study to create a playroom for my daughter, fitted a set of blinds, cleared my bike workshop/parts bin up from the utility room, organised my tools, renewed my house insurance and fitted some outside lights. Amazed how productive I can be when not on my bike!

I didn't. Still recovering from a chest infection but home to ride next weekend.

I went to watch the Cyclocross National Champs in Bradford - see other thread.

Very wet and very windy all weekend up here. I've probably put on half a stone.

The wee lad just brought me popcorn ... oh well.

Got big green lumps coming up off my chest so went trials riding in the woods instead. Great fun but broke my rear mud guard and missed a club ride at the quantocks. Hay ho.

4 weeks with a chest infection. Rode over Xmas with it and think I made it worse, Cwm Carn at minus 7 on NYE morning was probably not the best thing to help shift it, really suffering now. Antibiotics and night nurse, joy!

If it's any consolation, I DID go riding today and almost wish I'd not bothered ๐Ÿ™ Wet, windy & exhausting.

drove the wife around what seemed like all day and took a few snaps whenever we stopped, if I don't get on my bike soon I'm gonna forget which way around to sit on it!!

I rode yesterday with my non riding fiance as it was my birthday and she agreed to join me! She actually really enjoyed it and said she is up for it again. Today I started recording a new album, I got guitar and drums done for 5 tracks so am pleased. A good day!
