Rumour has it that the Gwent is cancelled tomorrow, I've struggled on the bike to work and back, and so I've given up, and am having a little rest, hopefully the weather will be better on Sunday and I'll be able to get some miles in.

At one point I managed to come off the bike this morning, at very low speed, and it was more a case of it sliding away from under me, but it caused my calf to tighten, and I've been very cautious since. The snow has been easing since then, and I didn't have too many problems on the way home, but then I was going very slowly.

Meanwhile we had a builder around to look at the state of the "outhouse" single storey extension at the back of the house, and it looks as if we will end up getting plans drawn, hopefully the whole project won't take up too much valuable training time.
