I broke my arm on Christmas day, a mere 39 days ago, although who’s counting, seriously. I finally felt good enough and the weather was good enough I was able to get up to West Creek and crank out a couple of laps. It was a slow ride and very short, but it was nice to finally shake off the feeling of sitting around doing nothing. I mainly wanted to go through the motions, i.e. putting my bike up on my car, getting in the aero position, using clipless pedals, etc. All the stuff that can result in a fall or hurt your arm worse than it already is if you’re not careful, but it was all flawless. Next ride I’ll go out on the road for my favorite short loop, a 19.5 mile spin in eastern Goochland. Glad everything’s working. Have a great day,

Jay

By the way, some of you may have seen the “Sh*t _____ [fill in the blank] say” series. My friend Andrew sent me a link to “Sh*t triathletes say”:

It’s great between ~:25 and :35 seconds when they talk about… following my blog. Right.

I also like the guy wearing the aero helmet on his trainer.
