It's 2 months now until I make my next attempt to cycle up Mont Ventoux non-stop. For those who have not followed my story; I failed last year due to a combination of effects of transverse myelitis on my body (although I did get to the top 4 days later). My efforts...cont'd...

Gorges de la Nesque Loop today taking in part of the Mont Ventoux climb to Chalet Reynard. Just dodged a thunderstorm on our return to Bédoin.
Wearing the @TedChallengeTM jersey today. @feckingpsycho

The storm before the calm (excuse the TV noise - we were watching an interesting programme about making chocolate!). 😂

I'm back on the race track this year!

@SteveFlemingM9 Progressing day by day Steve. The knee is good - with the swelling down substantially - and feeling pretty strong. Weight slowly going down too. Will be making a decision about Ventoux (all three ascents in a day/week) at the end of March. 🤞

@fredandposysno1 Presumably the bat conversation was driven by what was on the ladies blouse? 😂🦇🦇🦇🦇

@100Climbs I had Campagnolo ones but the elastic went after a few years. It's bags now 😁

@SteveFlemingM9 @WeAreCyclingUK Excellent 👍

There's a reason my name on here is Ted with TM - so I make no apology for talking about it! 5 years to the day (19th October) since I was wheeled in to hospital in Kyoto, Japan and diagnosed (within 5 hours) with #transversemyelitis . It's incredible how time has passed... 1/6

@DrBalsamAhmad @sarah16107480 All done! Was in theatre at 8.45 and out for lunchtime 😂

@DrBalsamAhmad @sarah16107480 Knee replacement tomorrow Balsam...another spin-off of the TM! Still got to get my left eye sorted too, but I'm struggling on. Having a battle with DWP over PIP but that's insignificant at the mo' as there's a lot of healing to do in the next few weeks! Hope all's well with you.
