1st time today for over 7 wks due to broken elbow, Ive been on the turbo for the last 2 weeks.....nothing beats the feeling of being on the open road....it was dry and warm and a bit easier than I expected.
It will be only road for the time being, offroad will have to wait till the elbow is properly healed and I have full extension back.

Same here. Really rediscovered a passion for riding after 7 months out with torn knee ligaments ๐Ÿ˜• .
One quickish spin round llandegla so far to ease back into it but I've been commuting every day now for the last 3 weeks to get the fitness back. Love it!!!

I broke my wrist back in April and was off the bike for 9 weeks, beginning of August I got a knee injury which put me off the bike. Then I got flu, and now I have pneumonia and docs say I won't be fit for at least another 6 weeks and biking even further down the line....

I feel the "break" has done me good,its reignited my mojo for riding,it wasnt a long ride today, just a tester to see how the arm/ elbow felt...wasnt to bad only riding out of the saddle was awkward.
The turbo riding has helped.
