My butt is a bit sore, but overall I am happy. I need to build up some miles before I go to Colorado this year.
The sore BUTT will toughen up once again. I had a straight complete shoulder replacement and was back on the bike in 3 days. Replacement is a whole lot less traumatic than other types of repair surgery.

Can't get away from baking sun here in FL. so ALWAYS something to shield. I rode 141 miles on Tuesday but began the ride at 1:34AM and hit 100 miles as the sun was rising so the rest with low sun angle were not bad. 91.5 miles yesterday and finished
before the sun had a chance to rise.
