Here we go!
Well.... Survived my first bike race of the year. Best of all......
Right then, racing 2012 here we go!
A bit later than planned because I’ve been a bit under the weather for the last couple of weeks, but....
2012 TT Bike
Seeing as my body is working as it should for a change this year....
Haemoglobin-tastic! Cycling like the 'old days' again!

I've
been so fed up with my absolutely dreadful cycle racing performances
since my 'comeback' in 2009. Found out in the autumn that I've got
deformed red blood cells - megaloblastic anaemia. The treatment
consists of mega doses of certain B vitamins (9 &12), the lack of
which causes the red blood cells to form incorrectly. Since having the
full compliment of correct sized / shaped RBC's, I've been able to train
and ride like a maniac! It's great - it's what the pro's must feel
like when they take EPO for the first time. Spend most of my time
churning a 46 x 14 on my MTB - I wouldn't have been physically strong
enough to do that 6 months ago. Here's hoping for a slightly more
successful season in 2012.
