To be honest, it's not been a bad week for weather since you got the bike. I've had mine out a couple of times so far.I may try taking it out in the car to do some rides near where I used to live in Colinton but that will depend on the weather.
Sorry to hear that. I think that there's a virus going round that causes it because I know several people that got it since Xmas including myself. I'm still not right yet, but I'm sure that the warmer weather will improve it a lot.Have only had a couple of short rides on the bike in the last few days as I've developed pneumonia!
Hopefully when I'm fixed and the weather is better I'll get out again.
