Quick history 58 YO
Runner 48 years Things went to heck last fall.
Did a whole lot of road biking in the 1980s in NJ
Ran a whole mess of miles every year. Over 5000 in 2013 100 mile weeks RUNNING.
My times were very good 18:49 5 k at 57 YO 1:31 :04 half marathon at 56 YO
Now MRI shows a hip labral tear and 1 mm of cartilage left in the hip. Osteoarthritis. Yea Me. November 2014. No wonder it hurt so bad running!!
Running just hurts now. Doc and Surgeon said get on a bike and in a pool save the hip. Zero pain riding!! Stiff and a bit uncomfortable after sitting.
Bought a Sirrus Hybrid specialized bike and a good spin bike for inside riding
Been riding about 200- 230 miles a week combined . Spin 19 mph avg 16 mph bike on the road. The past three months here in NC
I forgot how cold it is riding into the wind.. HA

Anyway looking to buy a good road bike in the next few weeks and just need some encouragement. Running was a huge deal in my life.
Biking will now be my addiction:-)
