I'm not sure where to post this so hope it's OK here.
For my 60th birthday (18 months ago) I asked for an electric bike. I was delighted with it but fell off the first 3 times I was out with DH. Now I was thinking "Why didn't ask for some jewellery?" but I had the occasional trip to my Pilates class and some shopping (although it was so cumbersome finding a space outside the Co-op and locking it up!)
Fast forward to Lockdown and we've been out a few times (not as many as DH would like but he is an experienced, proper Cyclist who, give him his due, has been very encouraging with me, it must be very frustrating going at "touring speed"!) Well, no more- after fall no.4 today. My thigh will be black+blue, on it there's a hard about the size of a tennis ball and my elbow+lower arm is grazed. I ache when I move and cry every time I think of it (3 hours ago). I don't want to go out cycling any more. DH will be disappointed that we won't do that together. I know some ladies would tell their partners they were not doing it anymore and not make a big deal of it but I'm a bit of a "Pleaser" if you know what I mean. Any ideas?
