Yep, rode the big 60 minutes the other day with fellow ABD'ers Jenny Cerwin and Jessi Prinner. However, the wound wasn't quite ready for riding the road bike - I only made it two blocks before I flipped the U-ey and went back to PPC-Batavia to borrow a 7.3FX Hybrid from PPC Batavia.
So, there I was, all kitted up with my snazzy Serfas tortoise shell shades... rocking my sneakers and a $450 hybrid. It was awesome. I must say I felt a little tight in the "mesh-area", but it was great to get some fresh air. It would have been even better to join the ABD Pancake Breakfast Ride... but I knew that was a little out of my range.
So instead I gave my LeMond Triomphe some much needed mechanical lovin' and modified it for "recovery" riding, i.e. put on a super-plush saddle, raised the bars as I high as I could, and installed a Race X Lite Compact crankset with a 12-27 cassette for the ultimate in "tooling" speed options when tackling climbs I otherwise wouldn't be able to ride for a couple weeks. Oh yeah, it's one sweet machine... and I'm gonna go ride it right now.
