So my doctor tells me he thinks my knee issue, lovingly brought on by a tangle (or near tangle) with my cat, is a "periosteal bruise". I guess there's a thin membrane, or tissue, or something covering some (all?) of our bones--kneecap in my case--that can be bruised and take months to heal. I don't know. Sounds good to me. I've not put it to the test since by ride to Elk Grove on March 12th. Everything I've done since then has been pretty low intensity, and short duration. I've ridden only 143 miles since the 12th. Not a great way to start off the cycling season.
On deck--Solvang Double March 26th (looks like it'll be wet), Devil Mtn Double in April, Central Coast Double in May, Terrible Two and Climb to Kaiser in June, and probably one more double after that. Unless Linda and I decide to go on the Sac Wheelmen Oregon Tour in late July. It interferes with the Mt Tam Double so we're trying to figure out which we want to do.
