Slight Setback

First of al let me apologise for the lack of posts ive made to the site since i set it up, however at least this one is slightly interesting and proves to many people that i am the king when it comes to being a numpty!

My training "had" been going really well. I was out on my bike at least 3 times a week, i was having regular runs around Preston Dock and had started weight training at home. I had even cut out the booze and had nice little diet going on, things were going really well….
Until this numpty crashed his bike and went flying over a bridge into a brook.
It was a cold, dark November night, God only knows what happened, i cant remember much (think i was trying to answer my phone though) but somehow I managed to survive. Even though a couple of people walked right past me in my moment of need. I managed to hobble to the main road were help soon arrived. After passing out a few times and talking complete nonesense to the paramedics i was taken to hospital in the ambulance were i needed 8 stitches in my left knee and also had a nasty little cut on my head and due to the knock was feeling more numptyish than usual. I was also gutted to hear that there were 2 other casualties from my accident. The first was my Ipod, which is now completely goosed and secondly was my beloved black wooly hat which is missing, presumed dead. I had cherished that hat for 7 years and was something of a family heirloom that i was going to pass onto my Grandchildren, that dream is now destroyed.


Anyway after a week off work mourning my loss im now back in the office, however i dont get my stitches out until Friday and even then i have to lay off the excercise until December.
So to summarise im off to cycle round Costa Rica and i cant even stay on me bike in Preston, God help me.

Cheers,

Simon
