Back on the Bike!

I got back on my bike for the first time in probably 3 months. Well, before that I was riding the recumbent bike at the gym, so probably 7 months since I rode a bike bike. There is a 50 mile bike ride planned for this Saturday and I wanted to see if I could do it. I rode 6.6 miles today in 29 minutes. It was rough at the time but I felt great when I got home! My throat was so dry the entire time though. So after this experience I've determined that I'm totally ready to be back in the saddle.....but I need to work up to 50 miles. I doubt I could even do 25 right now, or 15 for that matter! It was cocky of me to think I could do it hah. Hopefully it wont be long before I can keep up with my siblings and parents on the bikes again! Okay, to be honest I could never keep up with my Dad, but none of us can :)
