What the heck is this thing!! You think you are over it and start feeling better, then bango, it's baaaakk. With me, it's been off and on for almost a month. It's good to see that at least some of you are getting over it but don't count your chickens and take it easy. I now have it in my chest; the coughing is just killing me as I crashed last week, landing on my back/shoulder and breaking my ruby frame . Coughing takes on another dimension when your ribs are sore; by comparison paying my part of the crash replacement is a lot less painful. Please all, be sure you are really over it before upping the intensity; I did when I was 'almost' over it and here I am spewing out my lungs again. Today even though it is lovely outside, I am going to put my MTB on the trainer and do low intensity while I dream of the local trails (I don't want to suck in the dust and pound my sore back right now.)

Well, at least I am getting the next frame model up on the Ruby from the Elite to the Expert but I would have preferred doing it the normal way. Thanks to Wheelworld Santa Monica for the help there!
