Hey:
I am curious if there are any riders out there who have given up the
booze. I am a long time cyclist but managed to drink myself silly for
20 years before giving it up last August. I am now suffering acute withdrawal symptoms, October through December being the worst of it. I have managed to ride the road bike on short 20 -30 mile jaunts and commute on the MTB through this withdrawal period. I feel pretty good on the road bike, averaging about 19-21 MPH. I am hoping to up the miles in February and focus on doing a local time trial series throughout the spring and summer.
I have to be on top of my diet, rest, stress level, and exercise. So I am basically writing to connect with folks who may have gone through what I am going through now. Any replies are appreciated!
Eric
