Yes, I rode for the first time in 8 weeks since my car accident. PT okay'ed me to ride a little and see how it goes. So I took my new Trek Fuel EX 9.0 for a spin.
I rode with my 12 y.o. daughter a couple miles to the donut store. (She likes to have a destination.) It was beautiful out. No, I did not eat a donut (well, a couple bites of hers).
My bike rides like a dream but I really want to get her in the dirt. Need to wait on that though, the old lumbar is not ready yet. But it felt great to have the wind in my face.

I was on my bike today! Outside, even!! First time this year!
Gosh, I think DH and I did a whole 6km of road on our mt bikes. But it felt good. My energy crash nearly happened, but I pulled through it....and am still up now, though it is bed time.
If all goes well, I'll be out again tomorrow - with DH and our friends. The plan is flat and gentle. A good way to start the season.
Hugs and butterflies,

Yep, I rode today - its autumn here in Australia and beautiful weather, about 25 c (mid 70's?) Had a family kinda morning and this afternoon was my parent's 60th wedding anniversary. Whole family was going to a city hotel for 'high tea' (it's an english thing, finger sandwiches, scones and little desserts) Thought I wasn't going to get to exercsie but at 12.30 thought I could manage a quick MTB ride, got back with half an hour to spare, jumped thru the shower, wet the hair and put some leave in conditioner on and decided I'd go curly instead of straight. Got dolled up and had a fantastic time with my parents, my brother and his 3 kids (plus 2 partners) our three kids (plus 2 partners) my mother in law, aunty and of course my gorgeous hubby. What a special day we had, lots of chat and reminiscing! We are a very blessed family.
Pretty glad I made the effort to squeeze the ride in. Also good as it's my first ride since I hurt my back a week ago and not exercising is not good for me. Roll on autumn!!

Ooops sorry I missed it. I was so wound up and didn't log on until very late.
