Thanks for the continued encouragement. I had planned to ride today before the first real snow of the winter engulfs Maryland... my wife had other plans for me. Looks to be warm the rest of the week and weekend so any snow should be gone and the bike paths cleared by Saturday.

The nurse at cardiac rehab told me I am doing enough METS (metabolic equivalent something or others) during the exercises at rehab that I can ride the bike for basically as long as I want based on how I feel.
So I will be expanding my ride this weekend.

I have been riding a hybrid since 2006 and generally used to ride only 50 to 70 miles in a week anyway, so I should be back to that soon. My 56 Dawes needs some TLC before I get back on that, but it is a nice project to begin thinking about.

I guess it is time to end this thread.. I will post further rides if they are "significant" (in my mind at least) in the Did you ride Today thread.

Spring will be here soon I hope.

Pete
