Thanks for all the thoughts. The general encouraging tone and today's ride have made me feel better. I rode with 4 folks who were going to do 30 miles. I knew it would be at a more relaxed pace than my usual. I felt much better. Certainly not 100%, but I was able to bust up a coupld of short hills and felt good at the end. I will continue to take it easy for a couple more rides, but I think all will be OK.
