y'all know that this is a ghost thread from 9 years ago. I hope that Allen is still at it.

Started back cycling about 18 months ago when I did my first 10 miles I was so proud of myself, those milestones meant so much and kept me moving forward.

Keep it up you'll look back at moments like this fondly.

Thanks for a reality check. Didn't realize this thread was that old. I hope Allen is still at it also.
