A cycle touring photo that was posted on Garry Mcgivern’s Travelsonabike2 Twitter account on the 27th-September-2013 Garry was in Innsbruck on his way to Greece when he took the photo. Garry decided not to go anywhere today, as it was another wet day. And there were one or two bits that I wanted to do but couldn’t whilst moving.
The first was a trip to the hospital! Garry’s back went again about a week ago, which then, in turn, started his sciatica off again! Garry’s fine all the time he’s riding. There’s not any pain at all. It’s only when He stops and starts to walk or at night when he tries to sleep. Garry doesn’t normally have any trouble sleeping! Garry had only brought a few painkillers on this trip, thinking that he wouldn’t need too many, which were soon used up. Paracetamol just isn’t strong enough, and they won’t give you anything stronger at the pharmacy, hence the trip to the hospital!
