And medicine finds nothing

Is 'go the distance' Is this a road bike movie ?

No... sorry... not a bike movie at all - its actually a baseball movie (and it is surprising that it is one of my all time fave movies as baseball barely rates here as a "popular" sport)

"If you build it he will come"
"Ease his pain"
"Go the distance"

Hire the movie 'Field of Dreams' if you haven't seen it already... its a great little movie

Celiac disease is genetic, so one (or both) of the parents of your cousins (bouncybounce) will have the gene for it.Its an autoimmune disease,and about 1 in 200 have it (but dont know yet)
Thankfully it is managed with diet (avoidance of all gluten).
Its a pain in the ar-- to have ,
trying eat enough carbs and carry g/f food in your jersey,and coffee stops are just that (no cakes ,period!)
l hope LBTC doesn't have it, but there are worse things though

Road raven,have seen Field of dreams ,twas a decent movie.But tommorrow on my ride out,"go the distance" will be echoing in my head as l struggle home in the 30knot winds
Are you a kiwi in UK?

oroight...you are right about the pain in the @$$ but there are amazing new products and recipes out there specifically for g/f diets. Also, as I mentioned, restaurants seem to be getting friendlier to those with food allergies. Do you have celiac? I have numerous sources if you want (I used to go to Whole Foods for my boss and became VERY familiar with g/f foods)

BTW...my cousins kid just turned 4 and let me tell you!!!! The cake she made...MMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!! Tasted like the real thing!!!
I think it was on the fathers side...she is pregnant again...so far so good with the diabetes and celiac with the fetus!

I'm a kiwi in kiwi land, never been to the UK - if you know LOTR I live north of Rivendell and east of Mt Doom

Trust those winds weren't so awful!

Yes Bouncybounce l am a coeliac (celiac)Thanks for the offer of some sites, lm in Aust, where wheat is a very big industry.lm lead to believe youse guys use alot of corn based stuff,so g/f life can be a little easier.Is this so?
Yeah the cakes are very good,but often high in fat to compensate for the elastisity the gluten provides.(so l only eat one )

But it is only "bad "food that we miss out on.....beer.mmmmmmm..mars bars..mmmm...timtams...mmmmmm..icecream....takeawayfood..pizza...porridge
l even have to check medicines,lipsgloss,painkillers throat lozanges,toothpaste
better stop ranting..............
