Hello everyone. I wanted to share some information about me and my ability to get on my bike this year.
A couple weeks ago, I suffered an injury and concussion. This was a fluke thing and had nothing to do with this challenge or cycling. For now the Doctor has ordered that I remain off my bicycles. I have an appointment with a surgeon next week to determine if I'm healing well enough or if I will require surgery to repair the injuries. I'm hopeful for the former, but will also accept whatever the doctor says and follow their direction.
The point of all this is to let you know that I will be delayed in reaching my KM Goal this year. It is certainly my intention to reach it, but I will be delayed for sure and will likely not come in August.
I know that anyone who donates to this cause is not really that concerned about how many KMS get ridden, but I wanted to be as transparent as possible for anyone following along.
I am starting to ride a little on my home trainer (stationary), but I can't get my heart rate too high as part of the concussion protocol, so these rides will be short and sweet, but hopefully they will add up too.
Thanks for you support.
