Nice ride, congrats!

Thanks! After a nasty shoulder injury this summer on my mountain bike, I figured gravel riding would keep me in the woods, but off the singletrack and other “obstacles” I tend to ride over/through
. Just came back from my maiden ride - 26 miles, of which 20 were on dirt paths, but the 6 road miles were a breeze with this bike. I think I’m going to have many wonderful miles on this ride.

After almost 6 weeks of no riding I finally got out for my first ride of 2025.
The ride was a short one, but I just couldn't miss out on a beautiful sunny day. Pretty cool in the wind though at 6C but that gave me a great opportunity to try out the new heated vest I got from my son for Xmas.
Tires were almost flat from disuse!
The heated vest was a complete success. Had it on the lowest setting which was perfect. Battery is almost 5000mah so I think it should last for quite a few hours on low.
Hoping the weather allows for more from here on...

I might have gotten too whimpy to ride in my winter any more. Over 300km on the trainer so far this year though.
Glad you got out Dave.

Over the last 6 weeks or so I feel like my legs have atrophied. As I am without indoor options I felt the urge.

It's about F'n time! I put on a LOT of weight the past 6 weeks, and I am going to point the finger at you Dave Mathews for not even making me pretend I had exercised!! Shame on you!!! I look forward to shedding a few pounds via this thread ;~)) Thanks for this and 2025 rides down the road ;~))After almost 6 weeks of no riding I finally got out for my first ride of 2025.

C'mon, lighten up on Dave. I mean, Dave Matthews did put out some good music. But, he also dumped sh!t from his tour bus in the Chicago river on some unsuspecting boaters. Maybe he deserves your wrath after all!

Looks like a great ride!
Yeah, great weather for almost the entire West Coast, tho' LA needed rain. 20C here in the Bay Area and even a walk back from an outdoor pool wasn't bad. Friends in Portland hit the beach with their grandson.

Come on guys. It hasn’t even reached 32 degrees F where I live and still I got in 75 outside miles over the last two days. But then again I’m not home. I’m on a cycling vacation in Chile. 
Following a brutal climb, we crashed the border into Argentina , rode around the guard shack and returned to Chile. So two countries in one ride today.
