I have had a brutal sinus infection for the past five or six days and cannot breath well at all and therefore have not been on the bike. My question is other than being healthy (lots of fluids etc.) does anyone have any tips or suggestions for my getting back on the bike as soon as possible.


This has been the longest I have not been on my bike since the day I started riding so this is rather unpleasant.

Nah, not really. You'll heal more quickly if you get plenty of rest. Keep hydrated and don't eat crap food. Take it easy when you do feel well enough to ride again. Good luck.
