So I went up to Achill for the weekend, looking forward to a good big cycle around one of the most beautiful places in the world and then it all went wrong...
My mate drunkenly borrows my bike to cycle back from the pub and doesn't seem to recollect that it's fixed and brakeless... loses control going down a hill and bails, I've no idea what happened my bike but my fork is now mush :( Ed then proceeded to fall backwards into an 8 foot ditch in the dark to stay there until we found him later...
Anyways I tried to not let it get me down and to make the most of the beautiful weekend and the perfect beachbreak on Keem Bay and skim my sorrows away. So I'm skimboarding to my hearts content, have my fill and go back upto the car and realise my foot is swollen and purple... jellyfish got me :(
I must be due some good Karma by now...
