    Getting there slowly. I had to have a minor operation and was told to not go on my bike at all for a while. Things are still a bit uncomfortable but improving. Just taking it easy on the rides for the next few weeks and then try and up the mileage a bit. I put on about 3/4 of a stone in about 5...
