I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike...

After a long time, I did a long ride. In fact this is the longest that I have done on my bike, bought last year.
Did a little over 50 miles today on a ride with 3 other pals to a place called Chikka Tirupati and back. Took around 6.5 hrs incl time spent in having breakfast/resting. I reckon we did about 5:45 or so of cycling.
This is my 3rd longest ride (I did my longest rides in school) till date. And I hadn't ridden so much on a bike for about 15 years now.
Took my mind off my stupid injury and it is not like this is easy, but I am very happy and comfortable riding a cycle.
And there's good news on that front too. Turns out I don't have enough GMD or medically speaking, my gluteus maximus is weak! So I going to work on that as well. You can now say I am working my butt off :)
