Thanks Rogue - we missed you and the others!
It was a good ride. I'm still limited by the stupid heart rate guideline my pulmonologist set, but following it is the right thing to do. So other than being silly slow at times (which does allow for a very good warm up!), I feel good. Creepiest to note that I actually feel as though I can inflate my entire lung - which is what I spent a couple of months trying to explain to my doctor while we were trying to figure out what the problem was.
And the super cool thing is that while I was very concerned about losing my confidence descending (because I spent a coule of years having lost my nerve descending), I actually feel BETTER on the descents than I did. Which took me a while to figure out - why would I feel more confident descending after not riding for 6 months??? I finally figured out that it wa sbecause of the bike fit I got at PK Racing during my convalescence. The bike just feels like part of me - very cool!
So I am very optimistic that I'll eventually make a full recovery. Yay!
And we had good champagne and snacks after which was super fun. My daugher has defected and decided that V's cookies are the best EVER....Sarah

Been meaning to thank you Sarah, Veronica, Kelly, Joanne et al for taking Emily and me with you on Saturday. We had a great time. We were zapped by the last climb and exhausted that evening, but the next day we weren't sore at all!
