Thanks for your input. I’m currently consistently getting 3 weekday rides of about 1:00 to 1:15, and a longer weekend ride of 2:00-3:00. Occasionally ill squeeze in an extra hour or so on the other weekend day. Five hours is pretty standard, ranging up to 7. My wife rides but is uncomfortable on the roads and much prefers the peloton in the basement. Longer term we’ve discussed trying mountain biking which i grew up with but she did not. We of course both have lofty goals to continue pursuits that we both enjoy, and she supports my hobbies. We’ve really talked about taking it one day at a time, finding 20-30 minutes to get the legs moving, and just seeing how things normalize.
