It's now been 5½ weeks since I fractured my T4 and today I managed to get out on my bike for my first ride since then. I'm not pain free and I'm still taking the occasional pain killer but I really needed to get out and try before I end up in the loony bin.


So the dilemma was how can I ride on drops with a broken back and after some research I found that those clever French manufacturers made a rather comfortable sportive bike which has a shorter top tube and extended head tube to give a more upright position. So the hunt was on and one came up for sale a few miles from me.
