2019 has been an 'interesting' year. I rode my VoR200 in Jan, then a Rigby 200 on fixed in Feb. My knee was playing up on the Mad March 200, then it stopped me completing a Rigby 300.
Nigel the Physio did something so that I was okay for 450k on an Easter Arrow (the first one I've ridden and not 'won'), followed by a 300, a couple of 600s and my 400.
Paris-Brest entered and looking good for my 6th.
Visiting a friend, we were walking to the pub and I slipped and fell awkwardly. A visit the following morning to Minor Injuries in Brecon produced a shock diagnosis of a broken ankle. I couldn't drive with the Big Boot they'd fitted me with, so friend drove me home to Devon. A couple of weeks later, at the Fracture Clinic in Exeter, they said it was very minor and no plaster or support required. Back to Nigel; five weeks to PBP.
Nigel did his best, got me cycling. It was a long shot, but I decided to go over anyway and start. It had to be better than moping at home.
I got as far as Loudeac. The legs weren't working normally, trying to compensate for the ankle, everything hurt, and I was going at ever decreasing speed.
I was rescued by another dear friend who ferried me back to Rambouillet. In compensation, the company was good, as was the food.
Nigel the Physio is still working on me. I've managed a couple of hilly 200s. So, see what the new season brings.
