    I just made the connection between sfb and the three peaks this weekend.

    It reminded me of how much he liked a ‘discssion’ about cyclocross rules 😉

    C’mon SFB, you can’t leave us like this. The CXers will win otherwise!

    Always read the recurring cardiac threads and can tell you Simon will benefit from all encouragment on his journey to recovery. Don’t know him but core fitness and good medical care go a long way, keep up the good work!

    Can any medics comment on the nature of a heart attack in someone who is a regular cyclist and therefore likely to be pretty fit? I think it would be a useful discussion here and help raise awareness of potential heart conditions that fitness won’t prevent but could help reduce the impact of.

    geetee1972. If you start the thread mentioned above I’ve got some observations from the point of view of someone of reasonable fitness who has had a heart attack. It was a year before I was back on the bike. Retrospectively there were plenty of signs, which I would recognise now but I largely ignored these until it was too late.
    Only last week one of the group I was with was behind everyone else on the first hill, very little warm up and he ended up turning back, I need to speak to him.

    These early signs. Yes please. Pook collapsed on a ride once and we were flumoxed as to what he had.

    Cold induced broncho constriction mark from riding up a hill in -12 conditions without a face mask and chatting to binners. That’s what the doc said

    Good job you had a Dr who knew binners, Pook.

    Come on SFB!

    Any news on sfb?

    Update from his brother, James:

    SIMON
    no fireworks today..they have kept him under whilst they deal with a kidney complaint.physio reports improving lung situation..figures all good
    To put a good spin on it, why bring him round to discomfort? They are happy he’ll come round just fine and just tidying a few things up first.

    Good news, hope your on the mend soon, once you’re able to read this. Having said that I’m not sure you’ll get through 9 pages of good will without a relapse. Hand on in there.

    Never mind that, 9 pages on STW without a SINGLE ARGUMENT! 🙂

    Keep fighting, SFB, keep fighting!

    That’s surely a situation which needs to be remedied – come on SFB, you’re just the man for the job!

    I really can’t believe I’ve just seen this post. Only picked it up from the cardiac thread.

    I’ve been on many rides with Simon and this has been a real shock. I’m a few years older than Simon and you never know what’s round the corner. Never thought about it until now but at least one of my regular riding friends is CPR trained.

    All my best wishes to Simon & his family for a speedy recovery.

    The lovely Pennine has just alerted me to this news, very shocking and thank god for those who knew CPR on the ride.

    All the very best to you SFB for a speedy recovery.

    I’ve only just seen this too. I only met him the once on a Boggies ride that was more a slide and land on your arse than an actual ride, but he seemed a great guy.

    All the best for a speedy recovery!

    Late to the party as ever, but just wanted to wish SFB the best for a speedy recovery. There are far too many good people getting injured and/or seriously ill this year…

    A few years ago my wife and I chanced on a poor soul down by the side of the road near Kippford. We administered CPR; sadly, we never got him back.

    I know though (because his son told me the next day) that it gave the family a lot of comfort that someone had tried. You never know when you’re going to either need to do it, or need it done to you.

    Get well soon Mr B!

    Yep, sounds about right!

    Great news. He’s beating the odds big time there. Again, best wishes to both him, his family and well done to the first aiders, first responders and other clinical teams that have done so brilliantly.

    do you reckon the doctors might sedate him again to get some peace? 😉
