    After breaking my ankle at the beginning of the year i finally got back on the bike tonight for a peddle. I did a whole 2.5miles (according to my newly aquired strava app)
    It felt great. A nice easy 15 minute spin after months of frustation . Shame I’ve missed so much good weather but it’s just good to be back in the saddle

    I wish you well with your recovery.

    My ankle has seemed slow. I’ve had a couple of 3/4 mile rides since Easter. Yours is slower still but lets hope the next bit goes quicker

    it’s as frustrating as hell when you can’t ride.
    But, it makes you enjiy when you can ride so much more.
    Just think, you have enougn time to build up to a century before the years out!

    @white101 welcome back, feels good doesn’t it. After injuring my knee in December I was back on the bike earlier this month, first two rides were 4 and 6k ! Upto 15 now and even with dry trails that’s taking 90 mins.

    Going to try and ride the same little route every day or as often as possible just to build up a bit of stamina and try to help rid myself of the excess weight that has appeared. I was a bit wobbly legged when i got back and the lungs were a bit on the wheezy side.
    Patience is required with ankles, and mine was running out but today was the start of something good
