As for ridign this weekend, get on the bike for a short/easy ride and see how it feels. If it feels lousy, stop.
I tore my left hamstring Wed night running bases in a softball game. Thursday night I tried to ride around the block (thinking that hamstrings aren't the primary muscles being used in cycling). No dice...got 10 yards and the extension and contraction hurt like hell. So I'm waiting until Sunday to try again.
Hated missing most of bike to work week - rode in Monday, couldn't on Tues and Wed due to after work commitments. Then was unable to ride Thurs and Fri - the first two really nice days we've had here in a long time. Oh well...I got some new parts coming today to finish a MTB and a vintage build!!
i hear ya, i was looking forward to leaving my trek fx at home and riding my road bike in- i washed and polished it,
i look forward to this day all year long- it gives me a chance to promote bike commuting and i also noticed yesterday on the ride home there were quite a few police stationed on my route ticketing people for speeding and poor driving which slowed people down
