joann -
It sounds like you're making good progress - although slower than you'd like. On the getting back on the road front, the first ride back is definitely a bit freaky. When I returned to my bike six long weeks after my crash last year, I was a bit nervous, but I was more eager to ride than anything else, so I think that overrode the nervousness. But - the first place my bike and I headed for was the spot in the road where I had crashed. I really needed to see it!

And by the way, you should feel good about 10 miles on an exercise bike - be kind to yourself!
