Sounds like an awesome weekend you've got lined up. I can't wait to go back!

I'm banned from exercise for a fortnight now (physio's orders) and my weekend has just come free so i could have ridden any time i wanted. Grrrrr! :twisted: :twisted:

Mountain biking isnt exercise, its a hobby and having fun. Surely you could fit in a ride this weekend.

I'm going to see how it goes but i really think i should rest it. She said if i don't i'll end up causing myself more problems long term :roll: She could clearly see the "oh sod it i'll still ride anyway" look in my eyes!

But just to tempt me - what are the plans??!

Is that your arm you did on Monday you are talking about? What did you do to it, just seveer bruising?

I am realy hoping my knee is ok by the time we get back. After walking home from work last night i was sure i would be able to have a quick ride before we go today, but i still can't bend it enough! The swelling has gone down a lot so i am still thinking i'v done something else, maybe done something to the cartalege, but then again it only hurts when i try to bend it too far :? Oh well, 2 1/2 weeks of relaxing on some of the best beaches in the world should do it some good

Ha ha i'm not jealous at all Andy!! :twisted: :x Have a great trip mate, looking forward to a ride when you get back with your well rested knee. I wouldn't worry too much just yet - it probably just needs longer to settle down.

I'm off exercise with a back problem that comes and goes. Hopefully this time i'll get it sorted for good though as at 28 i should be in the peak of my fitness!! The pain in my arm has eased a bit and it now looks very bruised. Its good to show people and get their reaction

Yeah i usually grab every oppertunety to show of any injuries, and usually lie through my teeth saying i done it on a 20 foot drop off or something, when i was really just riding down a perfectly smooth bit of tarmack and just bined it cos i'm stupid

Have they diagnosed your back problems yet, or are they still trying to work out what's going on?

Yep - this physio seems a lot better than the last. She said i had short hamstrings, to which i naturallly took offence and told her she was no portrait herself Seriously though i have to rest my back and then think about stretching my hamstrings so my back doesn't compensate so much.

Hold on - haven't you left the country yet? Go on - enjoy your holiday!!!

lost-time

We sound like a right old crippled bunch..... :roll:

I've got short cheese-strings, if that's any consolation

Sorry :roll:
On a serious note, I reckon I've got short ham-strings causing back pain too. My daughter was making me try the stretches she's been learning in p.e. and I was quite suprised at how NOT-supple I am. Think my body has got stuck in pedalling position. :?
I'm gonna have to start doing roady stretches before and after every ride now :oops:

Errr... yes. :oops: I was forced to book tickets for the opening weekend weeks ago. :roll: Really looking forward to sitting in a cinema full of snivelling/whinging/noisy brats :evil: watching a crap film full of the MOST annoying songs known to man when I should be out getting covered in mud and trying to get better at riding hills :?

Are those lights ok with wireless speedos and heart rate monitors?

I don't know about that. I use a wireless comp., so as soon as I get the light set up I'll let you know if it interfears with the it.

I remember your posts, some pages ago, about your DIY lights. I'd love to've tried it, but know I wouold've ended up wiring them back to front and suck all the light out of the universe. Or something like that anyway.

Come on Ade - we all know you booked the tickets willingly to get some more "Sharpay time" and learn some more lyrics;)

Anyone riding this weekend? I'm definitely not but thought i might as well make myself jealous. I'm planning a good few hours bike TLC to cheer myself up though

P.S. Loving the Rick Astley vid

He's like the Grandad who repeats everything 3 times

I wouldn't say no to a bit of Sharpay time myself. And i didn't have to do too much research as I've heard Ade mention her before. Understandably

Yeah funny how i'm one of the younger ones and i'm falling apart. At least in 5 years time i'll have an excuse!! Have a good one if you do get out tomorrow 8)
