Damn and I thought I was miserable. Hope you get better soon

The wrist is good now, just no range of motion so can't get back on the motorcycle for a good while unfortunately. I'm thrilled i'm cleared to start stressing it a little bit and hop on the bike as soon as this sketchy weather is thru.

What is really going to suck is being the slow poke going probably 19mph for a few weeks.

19 slow? I got on my bike for the first time in a month and a half due to surgery and went out for a 20 mile ride this past Saturday. It felt like my brakes were stuck lol. Would have loved to avg 19

19 on a road bike vs 19 on a tri. Having never rode a tri bike Im assuming you get at least 1.5-2mph for the same watts at over 20mph. I only ride by myself so a tri bike would likely suit me better than my semi aero road.

When there is no breeze I typically was in the 21-22.5 average on a 20mile which isn't quite enough I'm told to compete with the guys that race down here. Planning on doing a few entry level races this season.

That's very respectable. The most I've ever done on a time trial is avg 23.6 and I was at WOT. I'm assuming you're using a garmin to come up with those numbers?
