DG, glad to see you got out for a ride. I think we sometimes put too much pressure on ourselves to ride more often than time or other things allow, or compare ourselves with other cyclists who ride 1000s of miles a MONTH

and we think we're doing something wrong. I think that type of thinking contributes to burn-out and it is an unnecessary pressure we put on ourselves. A sure sign of burn-out is when an activity loses its spark. I'm glad to see that you had fun on your ride -- that's what's important to keep you going.
