Rainy Monday Blues

I had a great week last week for riding. I was able to ride into work three days, and I got three good mtb rides in. In addition, a couple of small trips to the gym have been really helping to keep my lower back happy as well. Aparently, however, my arm decided it wasn't to happy with all of this. What started as a little soreness in my wrist earlier in the week progressed on Saturday to the point I had trouble turning wrenches. As it's my right had, and I'm right handed, this is a serious problem.

After running into a very close friend who's a gerneral practitioner, she informed me it's nothing more than tendonitis. I've never had something like this happen, so I was relieved to hear it was realitively minor. I've been downing pain meds, icing, and I'll get a brace today. Hopefully this will have me up and running by the weekend. If the weather coopoerates I should still be able to ride slowly into work, and that will have to suffice for the time being. This may be a good time to try out some Ergons on the H bars!

Happy Monday all.
