Past year?
Hardly rode the road bike, haven't done anything longer than a metric. Found the dirty side, started racing mountain bikes which is so much fun, joined the shop's race team, had a car wreck that totaled my bike and got a new fabulous race bike. Decided I will start nursing school in the fall.
So glad you're back and hopefully once you get in the groove you can get back to all your passions. New starts are hard no matter what they are born from.

Welcome back, Silver. I've been away myself and just happened to check in and see this post. I really do miss TE and all of the conversations here.
My hubby was diagnosed with multiply myeloma (cancer of the blood plasma) and I don't have much time to ride anymore. Life can change in an instant when you least expect it.

Welcome back, Silver!!!! I wondered where you'd gone to, and was hoping that you'd eventually come back around. SO glad you did (I always liked reading what you had to say). I'm really sorry about the divorce for all of you involved, and hoping that things are better than ever before.
Hopefully you won't be a stranger anymore!!!![]()

Hi Silver
Firstly, well done for getting back on here, always good to hear from old faces (hmmmm, that doesn't sound right)!
Lovely to see you back and look forward to future posts from you.
Brief synopsis of last year for me, lost my beloved little Bluey (budgie), broke my back, got a bike team up again and raised almost £10,000 for Leukaemia Research (although was unable to ride. Currently crap at most things, confidence rubbish on a bike but the swimming is going well. Oh yes, fell off bike again a couple of weeks ago...........are you bored yet................lol
I always like to think of any relationship that ends that it is just going onto the next chapter in life, so I wish you well with whatever you do in the future.
Hugs.

Welcome back Silver. Just think about Jobob's quote "Living well is the best revenge". I need to borrow that!!!
What I love about this forum is all the support posted out here!!!![]()
It's all about the journey (my reason for riding slower)
