Bicycle, post-op

Last week I went on my first bike ride since surgery. Actually it’s my first ride in months since I wasn’t able ride with the numbness before the surgery. All in all, it went really well for my first trip out. It was a bit windy but otherwise was a nice day and it worked well for taking a bit of a chance at some good exercise. I did put some plasters over the heel of my hand to protect from friction as it still feels a bit weird to use it. I don’t think I really needed them but it gave me some peace of mind. The ride itself was only about twenty minutes each way. I stopped at the local electronics/computer shops to browse for a break and then came home afterwards. I was enjoying myself so much that I almost went riding longer but opted to play it safe this time. Also my tire wasn’t aired up quite enough so I was concerned about tire issues. I made it back with no problems and had a decent amount of exercise. It’s either rained or been forecast the last few days so I haven’t tried again but plan to ride again on the weekend when it warms up again.
