I’ve had a bout of tendinitis for the past year or so, and I’m going to try laying off the biking for a few weeks. I picked the perfect week as it was just hailing, and blowing way too hard today! I may try a few things to help the healing – like finally finding a good masseuse or physical therapist. I am also in the process of a house move, so it will help to not be too tired to paint.

I do plan to ride in the Chilly Hilly on February 27th, so I may put the Nitto Randonneur bars on my Hilsen and try drops one more time (no luck with noodles). I give it a 40% chance, but I like the traditional look, and have Albatross bars on the other bike.
