My first time out in a while!

Hey guys, first time poster to these boards. I just wanted to say that I just did my first 3 miles (after about 3 years) tonight. I found out that I'm quite out of shape in my legs so I'm working my way up.

I don't have anything spectacular, just a 70's motobecane that was handed down to me and is too small.

Good luck P15. Haven't ridden myself seriously in about 10 years and went out for a few times at the end of March. Went about 16 miles on a modified 2000 Specialized Hardrock. Felt great. My second trip a week later was onlt 10 miles and weather shortened but I was much slower. Good luck to you!

Bikes: yes, I have one.

That first ride after a long break is always a combination of exhilaration at the thrill of being back in the saddle, and the pain of knowing that my legs now have to get back up to form.

Awesome project15, welcome to the dark side.
