yes, I *finally* got out to enjoy some of this great spring weather. It has been a crazy but good spring for us, centering at present around home acquisition which has taken quite a lot of focus away from my efforts at consistent training for tris etc. But, oddly have managed to hang on to some semblance of fitness.
With my DH off in another country for several weeks, I finally decided I needed to carve out some bike time. Got a coworker who just picked up a new bike to come out for a ride, and it was his very first voyage. I probably pushed him a bit hard for his first bike ride as he faded toward the end and our pace was very tempered to begin with,but he said he had a great time and plans to do longer rides each weekend.
Did 32 miles mix of hills and flat terrain, a usual loop of the hubby's and mine. It was cool to capture some ride data in the Garmin.
Do not have my seat muscles for the year, they will be sore tomorrow and possibly some of my other muscles too. Other than that the ride felt pretty good aerobically. Lots of cyclists out today. I love seeing lots of cyclists because the more of us there are the more drivers get accustomed to sharing!
Can't wait to go again, so I'll try to pick up a group ride midweek or so.
