i never get to do enough cycling
then i almost lost a leg in a cycling accident
had a week in hospital, weeks at home unable to move and then a return to cycling - now much more slowly
my leg now does everything it used to do, but not as well
the festive 500 was a fitting way to finish the year, some fixed riding, some on the road bike and some offroad on the 29er
its galling to think my downwards trajectory as a cyclist was hastened by one lapse of concentration 7 months ago
