Regarding his injury, he has plateaued, as predicted would happen at the 2-year point. But if all goes well, we'll get out for a little ride this weekend.

Seeing "birthday ride" in this context got me thinking -- always a dangerous thing! 65 miles may be a bit long for Rowan; 65 km isn't a lot better.

But the English system (not used any more by England or most of its former colonies) has so many useful units of length. Could he ride his age in furlongs? That's only a bit over 13 km.

Wishing you both a good ride!
