By a stroke of luck I rode yesterday for the first time in nearly three years, (the result of a pretty ugly fall on my head). I have gained nearly 50 more pounds due to inactivity, so now I am clocking just under 300. After watching the prologue I decided I simply had to get back on the bike. Despite pleading with my physical therapist she still has not cleared me for riding again, but sometimes you just got to to, what you got to do.
This challenge is a perfect choice for me right now. My job disappeared last week so riding every day will not be an issue, (kind of looking forward to it actually). Tonight I am riding to a friend's house for a BBQ it's about three miles uphill and sweet, sweet downhill on the way home.
So I say "Challenge Accepted".
