While today wasn't a commute. I did take my first baby steps to getting back to commuting via bicycle. I took a short 3 mile ride in low gears. My knee handled it fine, course I didn't push at all and just keep spinning at a steady pace. I feel like I'm at about 70% so I still have a ways to go (ice works wonders by the way). It felt great getting on the bike and feeling the wind hit my face. I only have two more days before I see the doc, it's been hell waiting for this appointment.
I can't begin to explain to you all how hard it's been to stay off the bike. I get my fix by reading about you guys & gal's rides. Don't take any day you get to ride for granted, love it & enjoy it. Screw the cagers who honk at you, only we know what they're missing out on.
Peace!
