T-175 Cyclone-induced Training Plan B (aka riding with Joe Bonamasa)

T-175

Cyclone Ita, bearing down on Far North Qld, rated as a Category4/5 made sure indoor training became the order of the day. Not a lot of fun riding in torrential rain.

So dusting off the trusty old bike stand, with  the fan on high speed and a line-up of DVDs made life interesting for a long slow training stint.

[See the great picture Susie took this morning in the early hours of Saturday].

I managed to watch a fascinating episode in Michael Moseley's great BBC series called 'Guts', followed by a gripping Wire in the Blood episode (love Robson Green as an actor) & brought home by the brilliant blues man Joe Bonamasa, live in concert at the Royal Albert Hall (complete with a guest appearance from Eric Clapton).

So all in all the 150 minutes passed with relatively low levels of boredom, high levels of sweat and an occasional peak outside at the rain & plenty of gratitude that I didn't venture outside.


Cancer fact: 44 000 Australians will die from caner this year plus countless others undergoing treatment..

We need to get 'cancer' under control. You just don't catch cancer like an infectious disease.

None of us will escape either having or knowing someone who has cancer at this rate
