I used to make pancakes from scratch every Sunday morning but I became discouraged by one kid up too early and eating cereal in advance, one kid (and SWMBO) up too late and the pancakes were cold, and finding uneaten pancakes in the trash with the toppings scraped off. About two months ago I told them I quit. I'd start up again on Easter, and only go once a month, at lunch time.

My little sister (46yo, PhD at CDFW) came over on her e-bike. She lives one burb over. Since it was Easter brunch I did it up a little more with some macerated strawberries, table service, and eggs to order. She stayed for a few hours and when it was time for her to go, I joined her for the ride back. This was about 15 miles round trip. More than 2x my round trip commute, but less than 1/3 of my ride-my-age goal. I didn't feel any particular fatigue but did get some saddle pain. Seat time and symptoms are right now the limit rather than conditioning.
