I do get the point, sadly I got it way too late; the damage is done and expanded capacity is not possible according to all the medics. Maintaining the (50%) capacity I have is the name of my game, although I'd love the medics to be wrong. I am ashamed to say that I didn't give up smoking when I was first diagnosed. I wish I had but alas one cannot dwell on 'what ifs', I can but work with what I have.

There is no way on this earth that I could ride those hills in your video. I used to be able to many moons ago but such steep feats are a thing of the past. Great video though.

I'm sorry you didn't get a chance to attend the cycling events this weekend.

Yes the rioting stopped after 3 days. The newspapers are still full of stories and articles dissecting the whys and wherefores though.
