Afib Rider

This site has always been about my experiences with Atrial Fibrillation as a Rider/Racer. I had Catheter Ablation done in August 2009 and,except for the occasional blip, remained pretty much in NSR until January of 2018. This is when I had my second ablation done.Then I had a third one done in July 2018. And a 4th touch-up ablation in July 2019. So now it will be about my recovery and return to full-on cycling again. You will also be entertained buy my occasional rants on daily life.....Enjoy.
