I cleared a physical as well as mental hurdle on Sunday and went for my first legitimate, clipped-in, kit wearing ride since October. I took a spin around Marblehead while my wife and I were home visiting my parents. I went about seven miles, spun slowly, breathed in some ocean air, and was passed by everyone...and it was wonderful. I was sore, but I survived. I might try another short ride Wednesday morning.
Hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday!
