I made a decision my stamina had come again sufficient that I might attempt my Tuesday group trip. We did considered one of my favourite rides- “around the reservoirs” plus an out and again on Casa Loma Street. I rode my recumbent as a result of it’s simpler on my again and fewer prone to trigger a flareup of my stenosis. I used electrical help as wanted to maintain up. and had loads of battery to get me by means of the trip. Very fulfilling trip on a stupendous late fall day.

After the trip was over I had a freak fall getting off the bike. As I swung my leg over it snagged on the body tube, so was briefly balanced on one leg. Earlier than I acquired it lose I fell over backwards, slamming my again (close to the sacrum) and my head on the pavement. Happily my helmet saved me. So now I’ve acquired a brand new helmet (it’s not a good suggestion to re-use one after a huge impact). Additionally a sore again, which ought to go away in a day or two. Time to work extra on steadiness!
