I've been riding every chance I get. Commuting to and from work by bike has been amazing. Each trip is either 10 miles (to Monroe Street and back) or about 22 miles (to Mineral Point Rd and back). I've been feeling great and really enjoying my time on the road.
Charlie had been commuting pretty much every night as well. One night a few weeks ago now, he crashed. Flipped the bike and landed on his face, fracturing three bones. He didn't need surgery, but it'll still be awhile before he's 100% and able to bike again. The risk of re-injury is too high. I feel sad for him and a little guilty each time I head out, as I know he is itching to be physically active. I'm hoping that we'll be able to obtain a trainer for our bikes to ride indoors this winter. It's getting colder now, and I don't know how much good outdoor riding we have left...
