@ehlersdanlosuk (#eds) has thrown obstacle after obstacle my way, but #cycling gave me wings. This year, I'm facing the ultimate test – a series of brutal #endurance rides for @BecomeCharity

@jdibon I’ve built a 5-day delay buffer into my micro-pacing strategy. Discipline is non-negotiable. No EDS flares since 2018, managing constant severe pain without medication since 2019. From wheelchair to first cycling century in 13 months, now attempting a 205-mile ultra this Saturday

@greateranglia Thank you, :)

[David Bainbridge @D_Bainbridge]

@greateranglia 13:47 Norwich arrives Peterborough 15:15

Thanks,
David

[David Bainbridge @D_Bainbridge]

@greateranglia Does that mean Norwich to Peterborough via Ely (as East Mids train) and not on list is okay?

[David Bainbridge @D_Bainbridge]

@CorKinetic From lived experience. Not exercising/moving pain is severe, muscles weaker, equals more daily dislocations & subluxations, mood negatively affected so pain feels worst, low QoL. Non weight bearing exercise, hurts but less dislocations, mood boost, 🔑pain management, higher QoL.

[David Bainbridge @D_Bainbridge]

@PainChampions @PracticalPain Excellent post and an often overlooked critical component of good pain management 👍

From a novice rider to conquering #L2B in under 5hrs, I've pedaled through #pain and challenges to hit 1,000 miles this year.

Every mile is a testament to #tenacity.

Remember, with perseverance, even the most daunting roads can be conquered.

Keep pedaling, keep pushing! 🚴‍♂️💪 #TenacityIsKey #bringingourmissionashore #EDS #jst #ehlersdanlossyndrome

Just 8 weeks to #racetheship for @jubileesailing!

Covered 1,164 miles since my first ride on Oct 1st, fuelled by #tenacity.

No hill too steep, no path too tough!

It's not just the journey, it's the cause that ignites the spirit. Here's to #BringingOurMissionAshore!

We ride as one, for all. 🚴‍♂️💪🌊🚢" #CountdownToRace #UnstoppableTogether

Setting sail on another training ride with my steadfast mate, Graham Strudwick. Chasing the horizon with a tireless spirit for #RacetheShip, every journey begins with a single pedal stroke. Keep the wind in your sails and your dreams on the horizon. #BringingOurMissionAshore🚲⛵
