I don't have to worry about snow, salt and sleet like I had before in Canada, it's the nice advantage of living here now compared to Toronto.

Course! ...forgot you'd had surgery. I hope you can ride again soon.

Ooooh I so want to do a century. Probably a solo century. One day I will, as long as it a flat century...the old lungs don't do hills, let alone inclines, any more. To be fair I'd be happy with a 50 miler before the winter sets in.

I'd love to live somewhere where cycling is a joy most days due to good weather. Over here at the northern seaside it's pretty cold, wet and windy ...or any combination of those at any given time along with a little tantalising sun.
