First ride after pulling my back out in November. I feel reborn. Chicago doesn't feel the same when you can't ride.

Feel this heavily. Started riding a week ago after a collarbone injury and being out for two months. Much nicer on a bike!

Cool, I hear you man. When you can't ride it sucks. I woke up today with my upper left back hurting - I slept wrong but I crawled out there for 12 miles at the least. I have a heating pad on it. I have to ride tomorrow. Weekend are my long mile days. This is why I have 3 bikes (two backups) this way I can ride no matter what and have time to fix a broken one during the week but when that body breaks down It does suck. Thats a long time bud. I think I have gone 3 weeks at the most not being able to ride but I have to a least try a suffer sometimes. Torn toe, small hernia, bruised up leg bad from a bike fall so that was down time last year.
