Snowy ride

a bad cold has kept me off the bike in the last week, so getting out today was just what was needed.  It was bloody cold though, but as usual, once going I warmed up and didnt notice except for the patches of ice that I had to avoid.

getting used to the road bike is going to take some time.  Not helped by the cold which was making my quad's ache much more than they should have been. 

I was over joyed though to finally fix my numb toes issue.  some BG +++ green specialized footbeds did the trick, although I need to keep an eye on my right ankle as I had some discomfort in it, although oddly it went after a while.

Will retilt the handlebars up a bit tomorrow, reaching so far forward is proving to put too much weight on my wrists and Im getting a little bit of pins and needles in my fingers.  Hopefully thatll help out.

Bit of a sore throat tonight, so hopefully its not the lurgy coming back again.  I might have been pushing it going out today, but I really had to or Id have gone up the wall with frustraition, plus it wasnt fair on Abi and Oli as I was so grumpy.  I really need to learn to relax more, but its so hard at the moment.  Im determined not to go back on the citalopram though, its been nearly a month off it now and its been really hard.
