First time in 13 years!!!!!

Today I got on a bike for the first time in 13 years!  It was super hard at first.. and a bit embarrassing.. but I did it, and once I got started it was much easier. Like they say.. "Just like riding a bike!"

My husband was going to buy me this perfect bike for my birthday in May but they didn't have them in stock at the time, so we went today.. and there it was!!!

My husband is such an amazing supporter, and ran along side me the whole time to make sure I didn't fall... I love him soo much!  He tried to get a picture of me while I was riding it, but he couldn't figure out the settings, and I was afraid to stop to show him how thinking I wouldn't be able to start again lol

I do have to admit I think I may have tried a bit too soon... my stomach is hurting a little bit now.. Probably because I was moving in ways I haven't in years! lol



I cant wait to get out there and ride with my kids... One of the many things I was looking forward to doing after the surgery!!!

Good for you Amy. Just the inspiration I needed. I have a brand new bike I have ridden maybe three times. That was years ago. I may just haul it out tomorrow, fill the tires and give it a try.

Keep up the great work! Hope your bum isn't too sore tomorrow...lol.

Right on!! I love my bike, it is the main source of my exercise as I ride it a hour or two a day. When I first started off I could barely get out of the lane. My wife has the EXACT same bike as you. I use it to run stuff over to my in-laws, farm next to ours. I'm sure I look real cool in it! .

Love the bike. I have one that I bought almost 20 years ago. Still looks new the tires still have those little bits of rubber sticking out. have moved it with me and keep it where I can see it. Can't wait until IWLS so I can get back on it.
Way to go!
