Mild Excitement: permission granted
http://mildexcitement.blogspot.com/2011/11/permission-granted.html
Yet another x-ray. One month on, and Mr. Swain described my range of movement as 'remarkable'. I thought the break on the x-ray looked as bad as ever, but he pointed out the grid-like pattern that apparently shows it's healing well. Back in two months for what will hopefully be my last appointment. In the meantime, I've been given permission to resume normal activity, working up to riding the mountain bike.

Mild Excitement: Lough Neagh Rescue
http://mildexcitement.blogspot.com/2011/09/lough-neagh-rescue.html
Wandering aimlessly in Junction One. The local outlet centre, I came across Lough Neagh Rescue. Fundraising. They're also looking for new crew members to get a new station set up in Antrim. We've always supported life boats, and I've always wanted to get involved in a local rescue organisation. Maybe because I've always wanted to, or maybe because my life is pretty boring at the minute, I put my name down. It doesn't exactly fit into the 'mild excitement' mould, so i've started a separate blog.

Mild Excitement: I bought half a canoe!
http://mildexcitement.blogspot.com/2011/11/i-bought-half-canoe.html
I bought half a canoe! Somebody posted on the NI-Wild website that Mobile Team Adventure were selling off their old canoes. I told Evan, in case he knew anybody who was interested. Before I knew it we'd decided to try and buy one of them between us. I was at a birthday party on the day of the sale, but Evan headed down and we got a year old 16' venture ranger. It's in nearly perfect condition, hardly used. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). I bought half a canoe! Song of the Paddle.

The Muddy Funsters: March 2011
http://themuddyfunsters.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Monday, 7 March 2011. A Passion for cycling: A trip to France. Muddy Funster, Mickael reports on an epic trip that he completed last year. I was quite pleased with the ride since I managed to do 448kms in two days, despite losing half a day on the crossing. The following Sunday I was doing the Newbury sportive; 203km in 8 hours 14 minutes and 15 seconds. I totalled 1508km cycling for June and recorded 9014kms so far this year against my target of 10 000km. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The Welsh Ride Thing.

The Muddy Funsters: The Welsh Ride Thing 2011
http://themuddyfunsters.blogspot.com/2011/08/welsh-ride-thing-2011.html
Tuesday, 2 August 2011. The Welsh Ride Thing 2011. Granted it's not the most inspiring and dynamic of titles but yet again this event provided what I firmly believe to be the best weekend on a bike. I first discovered the event last year and was so inspired by it that I wrote an article on the Alpkit website:. Http:/ www.alpkit.com/daring-deeds/welsh-ride-thing-part-1. Http:/ welshridething.blogspot.com/. Was to pick up 9 out of 11 central checkpoints and 3 out of 5 more far flung ones. Having fellow rid...

The Muddy Funsters: A bit of an intro.......
http://themuddyfunsters.blogspot.com/2011/02/bit-of-intro.html
Sunday, 6 February 2011. A bit of an intro. Initially we set up The Muddy Funsters so that we had a name that could be entered into the team/club box of Gorrick MTB race forms. A very informal affair, but a label that made us feel like part of a team. From two or three of us in the beginning we are now in the order of fifteen or more strong with all abilities, all disciplines, all types of motivations but most importantly all cyclists. Cheers for now, Paul. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Muddy Funsters: 80K Woodcote CX
http://themuddyfunsters.blogspot.com/2011/02/80k-woodcote-cx.html
Sunday, 6 February 2011. So my first airing of our new cycle jersey took place last week at the cyclocross sportive at Woodcote. I have done a few sportives over the years but not one that would take in both road and off road sections. Fantastic well organised event with lots of detailed information and good course marking. It was ran by the 'cycle events organisation', who also run the Trail Break and Southern sportive events. The event's web page is here http:/ www.cxsportive.com/. The Welsh Ride Thing.

The Muddy Funsters: XC Racing in Sweden
http://themuddyfunsters.blogspot.com/2011/06/our-1st-international-race-report-from.html
Wednesday, 8 June 2011. XC Racing in Sweden. Our 1st international race report from Woz and Malin.sorry for the delay in posting. The first race of the year is always hard. Normally wet, cold and muddy. The cold air on the freshly rested (all winter) lungs is usually a stark reminder that you need to train more. The burn of the windpipe and taste of metallic substances telling you that you haven’t pushed this hard since your last race a few months back. And felt like the training had actually gone ok.

Mild Excitement: cast off
http://mildexcitement.blogspot.com/2011/10/cast-off.html
Got the cast off today. In my growing experience of broken arms and casts, this is the scariest time. When the pain goes you get used to wearing a cast. Bumping into things isn't a problem. Mine even occasionally got used as a tool for banging things. Now all that protection's gone and I feel very vulnerable. I've got a big scar healing, and a wrist joint that's painful to move. A small part of me wants it back inside my protective shell. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Song of the Paddle.
