Little update of my own

[7rider]

Hmmm where to start.....

This update has several pieces:

This comes from prewreck thinking: I was looking at the Madone. It was around $2,500. And I asked on another biking forum about it. A young snobbish cyclist replied that I couldn't have a bike that cost more than my accumulated total of miles ridden so far.

Good grief. That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
Well, if that's the criteria, than I'll NEVER get that new Seven, because if I hit 2500 miles this year (split between 3 bikes, mind you), that would be a personal best for me. No way. Ride what you like, what you can afford, and what suits the purpose for which you bought it.

Since then I have worked with some of his friends to have some Share the Road signs put up. We had three signs put up at the accident site and are working to have 100 more in the area.


And back to the present.....I still don't feel as strong as I did prior to the wreck but I think that I'm getting there. I still have some rib pain and some shortness of breath. I ride differently now, very cautious, probably unnecessarily so, but I ride in a different comfort zone than others. I've seen things and experienced things that others haven't.

But I feel good! And I love to ride. And I'm so happy that Mr. and Silverson are riding too. Life is good!!!

Congratulations on your progress - on all fronts!!
