I was noticing over the last few months that this must be a community whose members are mostly in the northern hemisphere, since everyone got quiet when the northern hemisphere moved into winter. :-)

It's mid-Spring where I live, and I've been biking to and from work for the last few weeks. Until today I've been riding my hybrid (full shocks), but today I got out my road bike (no shocks) for the first time this year--and rediscovered how much bumpier* the roads are without suspension! *Now* I remember why I mostly just ride the road bike on paved trails, not actual roads...

Are you riding much so far, this year? What's it like where you are?

* Around here, winter causes potholes. It may be different where you live. This winter it got bad enough that I overheard someone make a tongue-in-cheek reference to the unusual level of asteroid activity we've been having lately. *grin*

I managed three or four lovely mountain bike rides before a stress fracture in my foot (from running, not from riding) sidelined me. Now I'm on crutches and no riding or running other than the stationary recumbent and pool running, and the weather is beautiful. Sigh.

Oh, ouch! I hope your foot heals well and quickly so you can get back to riding. :-)
