I did lay off cycling for a month. I went to Europe and walked a lot, but I also had plenty of good Bavarian beer .

I lost some weight, so climbing when I got back felt much easier on the legs. My HR was off the charts for the first couple weeks back. My muscle recovery time has been taking the longest to build back up. And as I put some muscle back on, those climbs got a little harder again, but with that brought back some more speed and acceleration abilities that had faltered after the time off.

You have been riding on the weekends, so I doubt you've lost much fitness at all.
