I hope everyone gets over their various problems since spring might just make a firm appearance, not just a tease. You guys that had surgeries, please don't push things, as said above, after 16 of them in 10 years I can testify to what happens if you try to push it too soon, you only fool yourself. Like Gerry said, use the down time constructively, I cleaned up the bike and checked the indexing on the drive train yesterday, just made sure I was near the restroom
, and the path was clear
Don't know nothing about spring around here. Skipped right to summer with temps approaching 90F and humidity.
Will be 1 week at 4:30pm since the stitches were installed. 5 mile 13mpm pace walk on Sunday. Mowed the lawn yesterday, pool cleaning today, food shopping, house work and cooking, all things to keep the house running since the boss lady told me to leave the work force end of previous century. She ordered a new bike for herself that will be coming to the house this Friday so I'll assemble it and she'll have 3.5 months of break-in before she retires and we do more serious biking together. Doctor visit on Thursday for post-op check and looking for the OK to get back bicycling. Should also get the OK for swimming but will have to do the Stingray Shuffle so I don't get a barb in the foot or leg since they're back in the warming Gulf waters.
Hoping the OP and others who can, are wearing out tires and chains. To the rest, rest and prepare for the days of riding to come.
