TRULY A FUN TIME!
I'm keeping is simple this year. I'm just riding!!! I'm riding safe. I picked up an inexpensive Jamis road bike. I'm working on local road riding and doing some hills to build strength. I'm not a fan of road riding for myself as I am terrified of gravel. IT goes back to the days when I was young, hit some gravel at high speed and broke my shoulder/collar bone and filled my arms and legs up with tiny pieces of gravel. I still remember the nurse at the hospital trying to pick out pieces with some kind of tweezers. I still have those scars. Anyway, I was out the other day, hit some gravel on a turn, freaked me out and those memories all came back to me...
I'm enjoying mountainbiking...love being in a forest! No risky riding this year. The goal is to stay clear of broken bones. I'm having a safe and happy riding season.
Spoke-o-motion gives me the Wednesday night race series where I can just go out for a ride and enjoy myself. I have to thank Steve Neal and Melinda of Wild Betty's for the ride clinic at Albion Hills. Steve has me thinking on my toes. "if you are not peddling you should be standing" The bike adjustments have helped...
The doc has put me on Zenhale, a new lung drug for me - lets hope it helps with the Asthma and I can get my lung capacity up - I want to tackle the rides with more energy.
Thanks again everyone for your support.
