It's been six and a half months since I had a major "oops" moment
involving a bike, a wet road, gravity and a lack of friction. One
broken humerus, 5 hours of surgery, 3 months of physical therapy and 6
months of no bike riding later, it was time to get back on the horse
(well, bike) that threw me.

The weather is still not ready for riding outside - it's below
freezing, it snowed 2 inches of snow today and it's dark by the time I
get home from the office - so instead the bike trainer was
re-assembled and put in place for a workout.
As always, there was good news and bad news.
The good news was that the bike, heart, lungs, legs and busted arm all
held out for my 30 minute spin session.
The bad news is that I'm going to have to ride for much longer than 30
minutes at a time to get my legs and backside ready for the spring
when I can get out for a real ride again!
Looking forward to some warmer weather and nice dry roads.
