This is from last December, no photos taken yesterday

I am riding again! After a few stormy commutes  last week, yesterday I had my first real ride since my operation.  A  relatively short 4hr grave/pavement ride an a "winter" pace, not much to say I felt pretty good considering over a month since my last real ride. A few spots from the surgery a bit sore post ride, but nothing this morning! I am back baby! Although I will continue to ease back into it over the next couple weeks. Boy was it nice to on the bike again!

Well I am not currently where I want to be, it's been two weeks since I went under the knife and that adds up to two weeks with no exercise. The first week wasn't so bad, I slept for most of it the second one is rough, I feel fine but have been told not to lift anything over 4.5kg for at least three weeks and not to exert myself. And I am sure the Doctor and I have different ideas to what exert means. So trolling blogs, sorting gear, dreaming of rides to come and walking lots of walking.

For cycling trips I use Revelate bikepacking gear, but on this bike and hike trip I went for the BOB trailer.
