Back in the saddle!

Happy days yes I've done it four months later and off I pootle on a ten mile night ride with Rachy! Riding wise I can happily clip in and although I used my gears lighter than normal I'm happy with that! I'm planning a winter of riding hopefully to get fit again. 
I cannot deny that it has been difficult I still struggle to walk properly with the tibial screw and working on my feet for 12 hours is tough but I'm back and intend to make the most of it. I've been weight training a lot and can see the difference it's phenomenal I have biceps and feel strong upper body wise.
I just now need to focus on strengthening my leg and perhaps to continue doing less cardio than I used to and maybe more riding to lighten the load on my legs. Physio is gong ok I can balance more but I don't realistically think I will be running any more or certainly not short term. Hopefully with it being my birthday soon I have hinted to the hubby I need some new winter gloves to keep me motivated!!
