Too many days without pain

I was jonzin for some saddle time. 50 miles later I feel better. I kept it in a gear that was just a bit harder than I needed and kept the tempo around 90rpm's. No heart monitor, I just had to keep going hard. A nice roll down Hwy T at a solid 37 mph for almost 3 miles made me feel old. Yeah, I should feel good I can go that fast, but I used to not need a tailwind or a slight downhill to hit it that hard. Just gotta keep riding hard.
