I just have to share this… my 5yo is in my lap and saw Jeremy go through his Code Red game paying attention to the bings and at the end the kiddo says “that’s why you need to wash your hands”. You have a new student guys!

That first part was interesting Jeremy, Rachel, Thanks.

I am in the UK and one of the high at risk categories. I am self isolated but I intend to get on my cycle and ride the Lancashire lanes in isolation. I think being physically fit is important. I have previously followed a 12 week training program devised by British Cycling and after 2 week rest start another 12 week program mainly indoors but longer rides outside. It helps with the sanity.
