Freedom/Back In The Saddle

Finally at long last I am free from the tether from my arm to my heart. This past weekend the IV was pulled, I am well along on the road to recovery (but not done yet by any stretch of the imagination), and the MRC opened the riding season with our board of directors ride.
With Top Chef recovering from the waistline chinaman, Braveheart in deep on the Conceptual front and your truly finally beating down the nasty bacteria ravaging my body we celebrated with a leisurely tour of the Ashokan Reservoir, one of our favorite rides. Here are a few shots to start the year -
