It’s nearly 4 years since I last posted here. Due to a variety of reasons including health issues but also a number of time consuming projects I had got out of the habit of keeping my blogs up to date. As a result my always sparse readership has dwindled to nothing! This is not a problem. I don’t keep a regular diary but I have have found reading back through this blog has reminded me of a great deal I had almost forgotten. I remember the big things in outline but not the detail I wrote about them at the time. So I will resurrect and continue this blog as a personal record but if anyone else finds it interesting then that’s a bonus.

Given that this is a blog about cycling the updates will be largely about experience with my e-bike, now nearly 5 years old, my return to racing on Zwift and any health and fitness issues that cycling has had a bearing on. The benefits of cycling in the run up and recovery from my prostate operation have been covered enough I think. The big issue since then has been my hip replacement last August 2022. I’ll deal with each of these in turn in the next few posts.
