Two Paracetamols & Loud Music

Just a simple workout ride tonight, pretty much as covered in the weekly review. Still feeling rough from this horrible cold. Taking it easy until I’m feeling better. Been on the paracetamols all day, was wondering if I’d even make it on the bike.

Yesterday I had a technological disaster, dropping my phone in the toilet. Yikes. That’s the end of that phone, after dropping it earlier this year, smashing the camera, smashing the screen, and then breaking the loaned replacement in short order. Not my best luck.

Why does any of this matter? Because 10 minutes in, as my warm up was coming to an end, I really wanted to turn on the fan. Of course, the fan is controlled by an app – this is 2021 after all – and that app was on my toilet phone. So I couldn’t turn the damn fan on.

Anyway, after stopping, fetching the iPad, installing the app, then laboriously typing in the 40 char random mess of a auto generated password, I could finally press the button to start the fan, please!

The wife and kids had gone out for this one so I whacked up the tunes and just grinded it out.

Boring, not very tiring, but 30km on the board for the week. With how I felt earlier today, I’ll take it. Probably more of the same tomorrow, unless by some miracle I’m feeling massively improved.
