And what news might that be? A free carbon bike for each person that reads this? Nej nej. Not that news. The news I was thinking about was where I announce that I am once again healthy and read for some serious training. And I will now cautiously say just that. I'm back!

And now that I am back, outside is a shite mess of water and ice everywhere so riding or skiing is not going to work. But the weekend looks pretty good in terms of weather, assuming I can get my car open after today's melt and freeze cycles.

So Saturday is on and Chris Cross is ready again.
