I've taken a 6 month career break to help me decide what I want to do when I grow up! This BLOG will record my adventures and chart my progress as I cycle the western pacific coast of the US for Room to Read. Find out what I've been up to and how I'm getting on...

Breakfast blog post. Sat 17 Oct

Tomorrow will be my first rest day. Tiredness setting in and by my calc i have just over 100 miles in the bank.

Injury update...
Head- tired and irritable. operational capacity 72%
Neck- was shot to pieces after long flight but has recovered to 96% op cap
Back- getting better every day. fewer stops required now. op cap 84%
Upper legs- gluts being treated with tennis ball morning and night and operating at 77%
Hammys- no problemo 96%
Quads- tightness requiring more stretchins etc now. op cap 68%
knees- right knee niggling at top front. suspect due to quad tightness. watching closely. op cap 46%
calfs- wee twinge in left yesterday. suspect fine. op cap 85%

today should be less hilly but stronger 10-15mph headwind. BAH!

oh well those pedals aint gonna turn themselves.
