I just got back from my 2nd solo ride. I did 20 three days ago for my first solo. The next day DH and I did 10 on the tandem. I decided to rest my muscles yesterday and was raring to go again today.

I got the two Terry saddles I ordered and, of course, chose to put the pink Damselfly on first! I'm going to try that one and the Falcon X and send one back within the 30 days they give you, unless I decide to put the other one on the tandem. I have a Fizik Trans Am on that, which I'm also going to try on my single.

Anyways, I ended up doing 15 miles today, a completely different route than my 20, but still decent climbing. But I'm a master at figuring out how to break up the climbing into smaller segments! (Did that with running too, back before I "retired" from that dreadful sport!)

Today I was working on building my speed from my last ride. I did 13.2 on that ride and 14.7 on this one. I'm proud of myself. Sometime soon I'll do that same 20 mile route and see how much I can improve my speed on that.

I don't plan on reporting every single ride I do, but the first one's are the most exciting! I simply must share!
