A couple of firsts on my short ride tonight:
1) First ride on my new Specialized Carbon Pro shoes. Feel really nice, power transfer is great, and getting used to all of the BG features. By the end of the short 6mi ride I had mostly forgotten about the new position my feet were in due to the tilted food beds.
2) First ride after having the first round of cutting done on my leg, arm and scalp to remove moles that displayed the warning signs of possible skin cancer. The good news from the doctor is that there were no cancerous spots, but all seven of the spots are “pre-cancerous” and are highly recommended for complete removal. I have just over a week till I plan to have that done so I will soon be off the bike for a considerable longer time than this last break (against my will). I had the first round done last Monday evening, just shy of exactly 7 days ago. 
Ride stats (short as it may be)
Distance: 5.77
Time: 0:22:33
Avg Speed: 15.2
Nothing to write home about, but I wasn’t out there for a lot of speed, just an enjoyable ride on the Gazelle. Winds were very strong out of the south tonight which really showed how a week off the bike really hurts the conditioning!
