This is the first ride I've done since the recent surgery. I felt a bit weak. I wasn't sure how the body was going to respond. I'm 128 lbs now. So, I've lost a lot of weight. After about 10 minutes of riding, I was able to get out of the saddle. The legs started to feel more familiar at this point. I kept my HR below 130 BPM most of the time. It was a good ride. My body responded better as the ride went on. I added about 1.5 miles to bring up the mileage to about 10-ish miles. So, that was over 30 minutes in the saddle. My wounds still hurt a bit when I stand up right or move my upper body around. I have to be careful not to lift to much weight. Cycling is the perfect sport to practice. My upper body is mostly unaffected by it. I think it will help with my digestion.

I was putting in over 3 W/kg, to my surprise. I'm about 10 lbs lighter, so that has a lot to do with it. Other notes, there were about 3000 riders on the Watopia map. There's more runners now.
