Brisbane to Gold Coast Bike Challenge

Last weekend Michael and I rode in the 100Km Brisbane to Gold Coast bicycle challenge. It was a sunny day so I got absolutely roasted by the sun when the course turned due East along the Hope Island road. My legs were cramping by the end and Michael was certainly getting away from me on the hills. Looks like I still have a long way to go to get my pre-chemo fitness back again. Anyway, Michael was kind enough to wait for the "old fella" and we crossed the finish together four hours after starting. A great day!

  3. Dear Anonymous,

    Thanks for the feedback. I have been thinking lately that I am becoming a bit narcissistic writing this blog about myself. The original idea was to maybe help other people living with this bullshit of a benign tumour. Anyway, I will persevere with it now I know that at least one person is getting something out of it.

    cheers
    Laurie

  4. As my doctor said. It's not a bad tumor, it's just in a bad place.
