THANKS for the responses. This is the problem. My rationale brain and body are telling me to not ride, as I am sitting here coughing and my throat is on fire (and I am worried that I am not responding to the prescribed antibiotic, but I know I have to give it a few more days before calling my doc on that one). BUT, the part of my body that is cycling addicted is craving a ride. But I know I have to listen to the rationale brain............ I didn't commute today, and was planning a 65 mile club ride tomorow which I know I just can't do. Maybe I'll just go out easy on my own whenever my ENTIRE body is saying yes.

And... *can* you go out and go easy? For me, sometimes a ride will activate the immune system - but it's gotta be a ride in tune with my body, just at the threshold of breathing hard, absolutely no attention to time, speed, *whatever.* Just "it's better to be riding than wallowing" (and if I don't do it just right, I'll have to wallow even more).
