I take a hit off Seravent before I ride, and do Flovent 220 mg 2X/day. But I think that since my peak flows haven't been as good as they were a month ago, meds are only part of the problem. I need to check my Flovent inhaler when I get home - like I can remember when I've maxed out the number of effective doeses! Silly things should have an indicator on them! I figured since I was pre-medicated appropriately, I should slow down instead of driving myself to needing the rescue Albuterol.

My doctor doesn't want me to push myself to serious freight train immitations. Although, I'm like you, some of that is normal for anyone doing a good ride. But after a minute or two, we should be breathing quieter.

Today it's storming, so maybe a ride tomorrow.
