    Woooohoooo!!!!!!!

    Got my bike back from the bike hospital a couple of hours ago. Just like brand new again with some decent rubber on her now. The BT020's are gone.

    Wouldn't you believe the weathers packed up for the next four days but I managed to get 80k's in before heading home to beat the rain. Man it felt good to be back on the bike after five weeks without it.

    The ankles a little stiff on the gear changes but other than that, I loved it

    Had my leather suit restitched in a few places, bought a new pair of Sidi Vertigo Corsa race boots for better protection (though I hope I won't need them) so I'm all set to go. Just waiting for a break in the weather before I had back to work next week, after my final assessment with the bone specialist on 16th January.

    I'm hoping to get a bit of riding in before Wednesday when I reckon I'll be packed off to work again by the specialist.
    If the destination is more important than the journey you aint a biker.

    Welcome back, I guess that makes this thread "the back of beyond"?

    Glad to hear your bike is mended and that you're not too far behind it - per some of your earlier posts (i.e. slowing it down) if you need to ride with someone a bit off your old pace gimme a shout - I'm in your neck of the woods.
    In space, no one can smell your fart.

    Awesome, look after that ankle, mate!
    I've still got a ways to go but off to see the specialist next week.
