    Thank you for your support. I couldn't believe I didn't get even one "adda girl"! So I had to get the ball rolling. Hee hee!

    Smilingcat, I couldn't possibly go do hill repeats in my condition. I have now fully grasped what the meaning of DOMS is. Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness. OUCH!!! I have experienced this before, and dh has explained it to me before, but I didn't retain it. MAN oh man were my legs sore yesterday, I think more than ever before. They still are, but I no longer have to go down the stairs backwards or lower myself onto the toilet seat by holding onto something!

    I have learned that I simply take longer than some people to recover from strenuous rides. Took me about two weeks to fully recover from Solvang, while my friend was good to go in a couple of days. Same with this GMR ride we just did. Me ... OUCH! Her ... not so much. This is so not fair.
    GO RIDE YOUR BIKE!!!

    I can't even fathom what long hill climbing is like, but I'll take your word for it! Atta girl, Jiffer!

    I do know wind, though
