It gets harder every day

I feel a lot older than I did just 6 months ago.

I went riding today and afterwords, my elbows were hurting, my neck was hurting, my left knee was hurting, I was just a mess. I also tripped on the dogs pillow becuase I was not lifting my feet very far off the ground (although it is a big pillow).

I was having some of these pains before when I would ride my bike, but I seemed to have traded a new knee pain (which is my old knee pain, it's just that it never bothered me before until I sprained my ankle back in February) for not having numbness in my hands and arms.

Maybe I just need to tweak my set up on the bike some more. I raised the seat today and that helped lessen the knee pain, but the elbow pain came back today and I have not had that since I sprained my ankle.

You know, I rode down Otay Lakes Rd today between Hunte and Eastlake pkwy. That road really sucks in that it is really bumpy. Maybe that is why I have the elbow pain today. I think I'll skip that piece for a while and see what happens.

Gee thanks for the advice!!!

You old Michelin Man...

Pop a few Advil and hit the streets again. You're just a bit out of it because of your ankle injury. You'll be back getting your bike injuries soon enough.
