Friday I got in a 25 mile ride, little windy but it was a great ride. No riding Saturday it was a busy day with my sons soccer and I spent some time cleaning the bike and adjustments where needed. Easter was a great day. Nice and warm not really any wind to think of. Headed out and was shooting for a specific route and figured it would be pretty close to 50 miles, clocked out at 48.9 miles. Longest ride I have done in a long while, since my neck re injury. I felt really strong and my pace was up for all but the last 3-4 miles.
Seriously have not felt this good on the bike in a couple years anyway. Have some pain in neck and shoulders, been the norm for a long time despite what I do or don't do. The big lesson is I'm going to hurt and I'm going to be sore but I'm not giving up on life's pleasures like cycling. I have another ride I have not done in a while that I'm setting my sights on by the end of April. its close to 80 miles so if I can get back to my pre injury distances I will be very happy.
