Night Ride
YMBC weekly evening ride is on Wednesday 18th March and the venue is Anglers Retreat.

It will probably be a trip out to the chute, down and back .

Weekend Rides
Nothing definite yet, but if anyone fancies a ride then I'm sure we can organise something.

Sounds as though they had a good ride last night.. The weather was beautiful for it.

I had to pull out at the last minute as I had some weird chest pains develop yesterday afternoon and could barely move. Still hurts now so might have to go to the hostpital to have it checked out later... Just in case.

Well, I did go to the hospital after much persuasion and ended up getting admitted to the cardiac monitoring unit for a couple of days and spent the time wired up to various monitors and having to pee into a bottle as I wasn't allowed out of my bed.

Most likely diagnosis was pericarditis which is an inflammation of the membrane around my heart. Cause unknown but there are many possible causes and it isn't unusual for the underlying cause to remain a mystery. I'm out now though and although still in a bit of pain will hopefully be back to normal soon.

Not something I'd recommend though. Although under other circumstances the very thorough examination carried out by the very nice student doctor would probably have been quite enjoyable!
