DH went for his first post surgery ride today! We set out to do an out and back flat ride (except for our street, of course), but when we got to Fern's he decided he was OK to do a loop, where there is a hill (small one) involved. Everything was fine and it was a perfect recovery ride for me after all the climbing I did yesterday. I did get a bit annoyed as we were coming near the hill, and a guy was on my azz, as I was following DH. So, I dropped DH, and he felt compelled to drop the guy, too. I let DH get in the lead again, near the top of the hill, as I felt exhausted from that little sprint up a hill.
The ride was 15.3 miles; it was getting hot out and the humidity is rising. I really don't like riding in temperatures above 80, but, I do it.
