    I Did It, I Did It.........................

    Yup, I RODE MY BIKE TODAY!!!!!!!!

    Not very far because I am still having some balance issues and I had to take the cleats and cages off and ride a flat pedal...BUT I DID IT!!! I'm not ready for the Tour, but know that I am out there!!!!

    Special thanks to my DH who has helped me through seizures, breaking a rib,
    (from a seizure), and then unexpectectly losing my Dad. Today was such a beautiful day my hubby said to me, "I can't watch you continue to feel bad, you need to get outside and ride." SOOOOOO, I did!!! I know I didn't go very far but everyday I will go farther and farther until I can ride again. In a week or so I'll set a mileage goal for this year....

    yahooooooooo,
    karen

    way to go! I'm thrilled for you...
    There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness".

    Ah, man, MBB. Now I am crying. I've been thinking about you so much lately and wondering what was up and now I know. Karen-side up and rubberside down. Just as it should be.
