Back in the saddle

I'm back to riding some, last Friday and Saturday, and again today - a longer ride (53 miles). I could definitely tell the layoff has hurt my fitness some. My legs were on the sore side at the end of the ride, we'll see how they feel tomorrow. I'll definitely go out, but not for as long a ride. My shoulder feels alot better, still some soreness and stiffness, but reading online, full recovery is on the order of 12 weeks or so, that would be mid March. I stopped at the site of the crash, trying to see if I could find where I left the road, couldn't see anything. I noticed lots of bottles on the roadside, I'm glad I didn't land on one of the those, it would have been nasty.
