This was my first ride since my crash and the first ride with clipless pedals. I took a short ride this AM - 11 miles. IT was around 78F with 10-15mph winds. I felt good, loved the clipless, LOVED the shoes! Up to this point, I've been riding with cages and my walking shoes. My feel were so cool! Love the new helmet, too.

Encountered a dog - black lab type dog. He gave good chase, but I yelled "git...git home" very loudly and he turned immediately and went home. Imagine that! The one day I didn't wear my good dog socks and I encounter a dog. I should have known

I was not twitchy around cars (thought I'd be). It feels good to be back on the bike!
