so, i remember in the original post an allowance for a change in a goal if the situation was appropriate, i would like to request that my bike rides be changed to walks. if i can get my bike back before the end of the competition, then i'll resume those, but until then, i'm pretty much screwed on the bike rides part.
Thanks

Sorry to hear about the bike, but I'm glad you're okay.
I don't think anyone would have a problem with your change of plan. But, you have to walk with your hands on mock handlebars, okay?
