OK, I'm still riding a bike though I struggled in the first part of this year due to a couple of possible angina attacks on rides at the end of the 2013 season so didn't get back on the bike until April , managed to get my fitness level back up and after a few warm up rides (200km,300km and 400km) I did the
Mile Fáilte 1200km and managed to get round in 89 hours
Unfortunately on the last ride of the season I passed out at the side of the road after 200km
![Jase :jase:](./images/smilies/icon_jase.gif)
this was due to me not taking my medication as I had a theory that it was affecting my performance , it was but not in the way I thought

so my thoughts now are turning to next years big ride and as it's a
Pari-Brest-Paris year (it only runs every four years) I will probably be riding that

Hopefully I shouldn't have any problems qualifying plus having completed a 1200km ride this year I get to pre register in April and not have to wait until June and just to spice things up the plan is to get the train to London and then ride across to Paris via Newhaven-Dieppe .
So prepare to be bored witless as I post up the qualifying rides as I complete them or not
