Today was my first time in about 5 years that I got back on the bike. It was pretty painful, but I think the biggest source of pain isn't just physical, but the comparison of how much and easily I was riding back between 2008 and 2011. Back then a 20 mile ride was just a recovery ride. Today, I did the most excruciatingly slow 11 miles. But truth be told, despite the shaky bike handling, pedaling in squares and no conditioning, I had fun, which is what riding the bike has always been about.
