First bike ride of the season

It's been a while....The week of Conference was a blur. The week after Conference was a blur trying to get caught up on everything I missed while I was gone. I've gotten in a few runs this week (including a speedy one today), but most importantly, today was my first bike ride of 2012. It was a short one with my club, about 24 miles/39km, but it was mostly about getting back in the groove of riding and riding in a group. I was surprised by how challenging it was but I guess I'm just out of bike-riding shape.
