Okay - i will set the scene first; I've have had the week off work with the flu, coughing, sneezing, headache, nose like a tap - you get teh picture,
:( so you can imagine what a whole week off the bike would do to yer sanity?!
... well today I was feeling a little better (day 5) but *needed* to get some wind in my hair (proverbially)! (i know the helmet prevents this and there is a 'lack' of aforementioned). I was *really* still sick - but over the worst of it. I thought a quick 1/2 hr burn can't hurt - so i took the cover off the STeed and headed to the hills....
I am on the bike, maybe for 1/2 hour, and realise my (flu) symptoms have been vanquiched, vanished, vamoosed, (
) my headache was gone, my nose had stopped running, i was feeling *homo-sapien* again, ????!!!! i have discovered something! It was bliss! So naturally i kept going - the ride ended up being 2hrs instead. I have discovered a cure for migranes! (So to verify this - next time you have a headache, or the missus says *not tonight dear - i have a headache* - see if you can get out on the ST for half an hour - it worked for me!
