Over the past couple of months I've been doing rides with friends. My return to the saddle
has been slow, but I'm seeing steady improvement. By the end of the 14 miles I did a few weeks ago I couldn't WAIT
to get my helmet off of me; my neck was really stiff, and my forearms were very tight. Tonight I did the same route
but had a much easier time — my neck isn't stiff at all, but I must still be really tight on the bars. Baby steps,
I suppose. According to my odometer, I've put on 75 miles; years ago, I'd do that in two rides; but, with having
been out of the saddle for so long, I feel great to have done it over two months!
