To Tapo Cyn via Bernard and back.
Took quite a bit to recover.
WT. 233 lbs.
(addition made dec 11.03):
Reasons for getting on the bike:

* I loved riding in the past and really missed it.
* I was offered a 12 mile ride on a full suspension bike in the most beautiful place in California, Lake Tahoe, and passed. After backing out on that ride for fear of dying because of being in poor shape at a high altitude, I was beside myself.
* I wanted to extend the vacation.
* I didn't want to be a bike burden on other, more seasoned cyclists, which I was.

I never would have thought I would be blessed with that and MORE six months down the road, literally. I'll eventually do that Tahoe ride, but so far, I am quite pleased with how everything has gone.
