Bike related injury or something more sinister?until I snapped an achilles on the 12th this month !
Kinda . Group ride catering to all abilities . We`d just come down a descent and we had some young kids with us . One got scared so I jumped off the bike and showed him how to approach . Then got him to jump on the bike and slowly come toward me whilst I walked backwards . My foot slipped then grabbed and it was like someone took to my leg like a sledge hammer . I then had to walk a k uphill to get out to where someone could pick me up . Not fun . Kid and parent felt so bad but it`s just the way it go`s . Don`t regret for second helping him out with skills , he was stoked when he rode the line and so was I whilst trying not to cry .Bike related injury or something more sinister?
Cracked out 80kms today, I've never backed up after such a long ride but tomorrow is the day.
Ain't given up on this puppy yet, 299kms to go.
Ended up at 1,959km total for the year - reasonably happy with that total!Can't remember what my km goal was for this year but I bet I'd be well behind, my work timetable is all over the shop and I get sent away with little notice, can't remember when I've had a full week at home!
I just ticked over 1,000 km for the year this morning. The majority of rides are generally short - 15 km return commute to the office (when I'm home) and typically only will do 15 km or so on the MTB in a session. My goal is just to beat the weekly average which is about 45 km a week.
Most of all I'm having fun on my bike and that's all that matters!
1248km2200km this year. 2015 was only 1600ish, 2014 was 4100km. Oh childless life was easy. Need to look into options to drag the little man around soon.
