two weeks off the wheels

October 25th, 2006 | Filed under: cycling, outdoors, random, travel

So I went to Connecticut for the weekend. I had a great time, too: a fun bike ride in the wind, a visit to O’Rourke’s Diner, a great dinner out with sprite and Karen, a fun wedding, a trip to Outhouse Orchards, tons of beautiful foliage, and an early (time-wise) drive back to DC.

However, at the wedding, I had a bit of a slip (note to self: leather-soled shoes and carpeted floors enforce laws of inertia) and gave my ribs a good whack. While nothing is broken, they’re in need of some R&R. So, on the advice of my doctor, I need to lay off the bike for a couple of weeks to let things mend.

It’s a drag, but it could be worse. I’ll be back on the bike soon, and I’ll be ready for ski season.

And a break from riding will only energize me to ride more!

  2. Hi, funny bunny! Good to hear from you. How did you find my little corner of the web, anyway? I love your workout log, it thrills me. I’ve thought about doing something similar, but I might have to account for my long bouts of sloth. Love to you and sprite, whom I don’t know but whose blog is cyyuuuuuute!
