Commuting - First Post Crash Commute

Today was my first commute since i got hit by a car on June 4th. Finally got the courage to do it.

Its great to be back. Cant wait for the ride home.

I have been riding but mostly to prospect park and doing some laps. I can tell you it is totally different to push hard to get to and from work knowing you have an actual destination.

So happy to be back.

Welcome Back!

Glad your back! Keep pedalin!

Good job!

Good for you, I know the feeling! I crashed on April 2 for reasons unknown because the concussion I got left me with no memory of that afternoon. I was chomping at the bit to get back in the saddle (and what a mixed metaphor that is) but it was oddly unsettling at first when I actually got to the point where I could. That passed soon enough and I have been happily commuting for a couple of months now. Just be more careful about everything, that is all I can do since I don't even know what hit me, what I hit, or which it was!!

welcome back!, I know how the feeling.

Very impressive, mister. Congrats!

Congrats on overcoming the mental part and coming back. It's a mind game. I was a tight end when I played football and injured my knee that took me out for 2 months. The hardest part of coming back was not rehab, it was trusting my knee when I ran my routes. The mind game is the real playing field.

I recently crashed in the park near my office and broke my collarbone-- I was coming back on a path and hit a rut and was rudely deposited on the concrete-

Looking forward to that first ride (two weeks) with a bit of excitement and trepidation. Glad your ride went well, makes me more excited!

Glad you're back - congrats! It's Saturday and I rode in for some overtime today. Just saw the weather report - expecting 20mph winds this afternoon from the southeast...:twitchy: Yup, headwinds! See what you've been missing? :p Be safe!
