Minor Quickie - Vitamin I

Just a quick addition... I know, and greatly appreciate, that people have been praying about my knees. Today's ride was 125 km and went from 7am to 3pm. I took some Ibuprofen at 7am -- a fellow rider had forgotten his at the gear truck and so I gave him some and popped some myself at the same time.

But I completely forgot to take it again at 11 -- 4hrs later when the next dose would normally be required. And the only ache I feel tonight is in my thighs which is just muscle soreness from all the work they're doing!

Tomorrow I shall try and skip the Ibuprofen and see what happens. I'm a bit wary of this, as Ibuprofen also can be a preventative measure, having it kick in before the pain starts.

I'll let you know...

Hey Art!
Great to see you breezing through Brantford, and no flats today!
We're praying for all you Sea-to-Sea-ers - and for Heather & the rest of your support crew at home.
All the best!
