Martins Cold

Anyone else aquired Martin's cold from our trip?

Thanks Martin! I hope you're better now.

I also have tingling fingers (Ring and Pinky on both hands) which I have self diagnosed as Ulna Nerve Compression (checked out on Google!! ) at the wrist from holding the flat bars in one position for too long. A week or two off the bike looms. How will I manage the withdrawal symptoms?

  1. I've still got a sore bum but I blame no-one for that!

  2. I dont know about withdrawal symptoms. I break out in a cold sweat every time I see my bikes.

  3. The Venetian Virus has struck here. Damned Italians!! Yesterday wildly swinging feelings of cold and hot, today an increasingly sore throat. If Martin felt as strong as I do now and managed to cycle as he did for several days he deserves a Medal. Cycling in the foothills outside Cheltenham to take some photos of steam locos does not come under the heading of "Sensible things to do when suffering a cold".

  5. I have been off line with broadband problems - all ok now. I had the cold virus as well and have now just about recovered. I have not been on the bike since our return home, so must get out before I loose all that leg muscle I have acquired.

  6. So, Keith, have you too succumbed to the dreaded lurgi, or are we two the only ones to have come out of this adventure unscathed?
