I know this doesn’t really have any relevance to riding at all, except for how long I’m off the bike for, but to all those folks out there with kids, if they get tonsillitis, take them to the hospital and have them (tonsills, not kids) removed early.
I say this 'cause I’m 28years young, and am now on day 3 of recovery from having a tonsillectomy, and must say is the most painfull recovery I’ve ever endured. I’ve broken collarbones, ripped tendons of ankles, disslocated shoulders, but this is worse than any.
So do your little nippers a favour, the older you get, the worse it is they say!
Safe riding all,
Ev.
