Not a lot of adventure riding for me in 2018.  Finally the cardiac and infectious diseases consultants agreed that the heart problems could be due to a return/recurrence of Lyme Disease.  Heavy treatment began and then the recovery…  This was the treatment I think I should have had the first time round and I was delighted to discover that symptoms (particularly a lot of joint/spine pain) I’d had for years were finally resolved.  My heart also began to behave itself too.  I guess a break from proper adventure riding is worth that!!!
