Freezing cold but a good ride out all the same. Down to the Ponderosa for breakfast then to Bala lake and a good blast around.

Fairplay, It aint the cold that bothers me so much as the Metal eating salt everywhere. Im  on the sick anyway so like me the bike will be wrapped up in bed for a few days, shingles!!! Thought that was an old persons affliction, oh hang on, I am old I suppose, must of been the stress of Christmas :icon_frown:

Oh yeah, I see you have a VFR mate too,

I've had shingles Tim, did they get you onto the anti viral drugs early?  They did help a bit but I was late getting them.  I won't bore you with the details but it took a while to get over and if nerve ends are damaged the discomfort can last a long time.

Yeah, fairly soon, I had nerve pain first for about 3 days then the missus spotted the rash on me back, went up Doctors yesterday and got the anti-virals. Its not too bad at the moment but Ive been warned it could get worse before it gets better
