Bike Ride!!!!!

Yay Catrin! So glad you're feeling better (now take it easy!!).

My wrist and hand are about 90% and I've been on the road bike twice now. This morning I did 30 on the road bike - sucking a lot of wheel with the boyz, but still pretty hard for me considering my lack of conditioning. Then I cut it short (shifting the RD is still kinda iffy, being in the flatlands is a blessing on that score), grabbed a shower, hopped on the commuter and did another 11 to and from church.

The problem, now, is how to tell the difference. There was some twinging in my Sartorius (spelling?) in my right leg on my last loop - but it passed and anyway I had to get back to my car. I did resist the urge to do just one more loop - it seemed a good time to stop. Haven't ridden two days in a row since early October so I wasn't about to over-do it.

I just have to learn what "over-doing" it looks like The PT did give me an idea on what I can ignore from the hamstring though, and that helps.

I was so happy to get out on the road with DH today. It was over 60! That never happens in February in Nebraska. There was a lot of snow melting so it was sloppy in a few places, but it was an awesome ride. There was a stiff wind, but it wasn't bad except for about a 4-5 mile section along a highway into the awful wind on a rough shoulder. That was torture! We only went about 10mph there.

All in all we got in 51 miles. It was glorious! I was happy to see that all of the trainer riding over the winter seems to be paying off.

So glad you are back out there Catrin!
