I’m back!! In August, I took my (new!) Brompton and cycled along the River Wey, a wild summer bikepacking adventure. It was *wonderful*. Close to home in London, but I felt so happy, and so free, out on the bike again, with my gear, sleeping in my tent...
I have not been out for a while, because earlier this year I found out that my breast cancer had come back. I've been having loads of scans and hospital appointments, and I've had an operation, and now I'm on chemotherapy. But the hospital has encouraged me to be active, and to enjoy the things I like doing if I feel good enough. So, alongside chemo, I am out bikepacking again. Yay! I took extra care, in particular to minimise the risk of infection, with extra medical kit etc. And it feels like my gorgeous weekend of "cycling therapy" was at least as powerful as chemotherapy. It made me feel strong! Myself again.
And why a new Brompton? Well, just after I had my operation, my beloved lime green Brompton was stolen, from right behind me by the Thames in Bermondsey. Everything was going wrong. But after this trip, I feel much better. Hope you enjoy the film!!
