Back on the road!

The big news is the cast is now off and I am back on a bike! The doctor doesn't recommend anything too agressive for a while so the BFe is still locked up and sitting in the corner looking neglected. After so long being immobile it feels great to get back out on the road bike and getting some freedom back. Today was a gentle but rather cold and blustery ride out onto the Gower. My leg feels far more natural on the bike than walking at the moment, cycling was actually far easier than I expected after so long off. The goal now is to stay intact and get fit ready for the race season.

Protection (apparently I need it!) from Kali and TrickX

Kali have just sent down one of their new line of Piss Pots the Samra. The graphics look sharp and the fit is a noticeable improvement on my Maha from last year. The new shape feels far more fitted and super secure so big thumbs up there.

To go with the new lid TrickX have provided knee pads and ankle guards. The knee pads follow the standard slimline pad design that positions foam and a hard knee cap exactly where it is needed. They look tough and this tried and tested approach to protection will no doubt result in secure and comfy pads that will stay in place when shit hits the fan.
