Yes, my interminable cough still sits happily on my lungs with tediously joyful abandon.  Today, I coughed up a blob of phlegm roughly the size of a ping pong ball.  Exciting times!  Sadly my hopes of the doctor giving me the Fix All Ills Pills were cruelly dashed as my doctor informed me that it was viral, not bacterial, so there’s nothing that can be done.  On the plus side, my eyes and incredibly bloodshot from all the coughing so I can possibly make a career as an extra for the next 28 Days Later sequel.

But enough about my ailing health (afterall, got to leave something to talk about on the next blog update…) there is some splendid news!  There will be free food at Cannock Chase on January 2nd!  All you have to do is meet at Swinnertons Cycles at 10am and do some digging!

Yes, it’s time for another Big Build Day! This time it’s to replace one of the fireroad climbs with a new singletrack ascent – the new section is currently monikered ‘Section D’. I’m not sure why I thought a deer wearing a monocle was a good idea, but still, can’t argue with t’muse.
