A good weather for a late afternoon ride. I took the Moots PsychloX out for a spin, just to feel a real bike again. I only did a short ride toowards Hamme Mille and back again. With a temperature of 15 degrees it was sweet to be outside again.

It had been since the end of september that I last rode a bike outside so when the temperature reached 10 degrees C in the early afternoon I decided to take the Litespeed Obed out for a spin. The bike felt right from the start but I soon discovered that 5 months is a long time. My body remembered the cycling movement - I have been riding on the rollers - but there is a big difference between the stable environment on the rollers and the different input the bike and body get when cycling outside. I started easy and let the legs find a good speed and tempo. The two climbs I took with caution not to let my heartrate go up too high. My hands seem to hurt the most. Clasping the handlebar and undergoing the shocks - although tempered by triple titanium - and perhaps gripping too tight due to the lack of experience with the movements of the wheel and the bike. I switched positions using the horns and after a while I could relax a bit more. I had a good time and I'm sure I will feel pain in muscles long forgotten in the coming days..

Felt like a little ride so I took a spin on the Merlin. Following my Nodebais trail I set out through Meerdael forest and Mille towards Tourinnes. Onwards to Nodebais and then back over Hamme Mille and Valduc. Could keep the speed pretty well even though I was not really trying to go fast. near the end I was chasing a bit to be home in less than an hour. Good ride in excellent conditions. Dry, no wind, sunny and not too warm.
