10 years off the bike in deference to MrsRSBob who loved to cycle. She had a knee replaced and it didn’t go well and couldn’t ride - so I stopped and just ran. Dog how I hate running. After ten years I said to myself, self WTF? And started mountain biking with a vengeance. Did that for another 10 years until my back couldn’t take the pounding, so went back to road. The Mrs got an e-bike cause of her knee and RA and cycled happily ever after. -
