Well, I strained my back on Dec 31, 2011. I haven’t done much exercise since, and have had trouble sitting comfortably at work. So Sherie is off now on a GPC bike ride, and I am home.
I did total my riding stats for the year. I rode nearly 4000 miles, with plenty of hills for a GPC hill rating of 4 for the year. Also my speed is down a bit steadily over the last few years, but is that because I have ridden more vertical per mile?
