My training is finally back on track after recent setbacks such as sciatica. I will try to post more often now, I think I had petered out somewhat, maybe due to being a bit discouraged. I’m doing a lot of PT, stretching and strengthening, for muscles around the lower back and hip area so hopefully there will be no more backslides. I’m back to around two hours of exercise a day on average, including biking, my upper body strength work, and PT. So far so good!
Friday I rode my upright over to the Coyote Creek trail but rode my upright on the dirt trails in the vicinity instead of the paved path. These are very lightly used, I think they’re more intended for horseback riding, but they are great for bikes too as long as you have wide enough tires. I’m able to stand for longer periods again on the upright which I find to be a fun alternative to seated riding.
Yesterday it was back to the recumbent for a tour up into the hills Southwest of town. Cruising at a decent speed, about 18 mph (~30 kph) or so, with a bit of electric assist, is exhilarating.
