The bad news: It does not look like I'll be riding a century this year after all. I've made a lot of progress - I dropped over 30 pounds and got some of my old muscle tone back, but I still have a ways to go before I tackle 100 miles again.
The good news: I've got my Cateye cyclocomputer working and mounted on my Ciocc so I can ride her on my wind-trainer in the evenings after work. It is amazing what 30 minutes on the bike can accomplish! My Cateye has a cadence sensor and a rear wheel sensor, so I'll be able to track my speed and distance ridden - I couldn't do that on the trainer with my front-wheel sensored Bell computer. I plan to increase the length/intensity of my training and get really fit (as opposed to flabby) over the holidays. My goal is to be ready for the road again next Spring!
