First ride outdoors. This was scary!

[@gregsettle9725]

Recovery is a marathon, not a sprint. Somewhere along the way, we all learn that. Excellent that you're back outside on the bike!

[@malwoanders]

Great News! 🚴🏻🎄

[@scotte760]

Good to see you out again Juliet. I did the same today, my first outdoor ride in 7 weeks after suffering a bad knee injury after a fall on my gravel bike. You're absolutely right about what it does for your mood, I feel great having done it. Keep it up!

[@hans-e6x]

It's nice to see you smiling again. Your smile is contagious and uplifting. I wish you happy holidays and a merry Christmas. 🎅🏻🫶🏻

[@benwebster4330]

Working up to my first outside ride after a broken clavicle. This gives me some more motivation!

[@nederlanditism1154]

the mood thing moment, it was easy and clearly visible, the look was so cheered up.

[@EllieAa1]

The pinky movement! That's so exciting!! Hell yea for every little recovery win!

[@H457ur]

It’s so cool that you could train whist recovering. I had a broken hip and I couldn’t do anything for almost a year. Even a trainer was painful. I lost 25 kg (mostly fat, but at least 5 kg of muscle.) When I started again, my thighs were the size of a normal man’s bicep. It was depressing… but now I’m on a 375 day riding streak and I’m outside every damn day, even if it’s snowing. Pure joy!

[@jasonreed4648]

Great to see you out and about, everyone knows a bad day on the bike beats a good day at the office office no matter what.

[@ancientfifer]

Yay! Getting your Joy back! I have been prohibited from outdoor riding on 3 occasions for 12-20 weeks due to one major foot surgery and two total hip replacements in the last 4 years. I completely empathize with your journey to recovery. But dang, look how far you have progressed in just 6 weeks. Truly remarkable. A strong spirit will move the body! Ride On Juliet!!

[@shanelaird9032]

Your attitude and perseverance is amazing. Keep it up, inspiring! Keep grinding

[@CanyonWanderer]

Yeah, congratulations on riding outside again! I can really feel the uplifting mood change!

[@Wyliedawg]

What a wonderful Christmas present for all of us to see you out on the bike again, clearly a sign of things continuing to heal and improve. You'll be back in top form sooner than you can imagine!!! Best wishes for a wonderful Christmas to you and everyone watching your channel and here's to a fantastic 2025 to all. - Bob (Toronto, Canada)

[@ravenwing8842]

So good to see you back out there Juliet. As someone who’s had to claw my way back from multiple injuries, I’ve sort of learnt to value patience and the worth of baby steps, but this has taken me a very long time. The body is a miracle and personally if I was in your shoes I’d be telling myself that a full recovery is possible if I believe it to be. Nerve damage does take a long time though as does connective tissue. I hope you are taking plenty of glucosamine, chrondrotin, collagen, eating oily fish, hard cheese and pineapples. Have a Wonderful Christmas and New Year and Yuletide.❤

[@andrewgardner7104]

It's the little finger things that make us happy. Inspiration lady.

[@paulbailey4542]

Glad to see you up and about. I suffered an AC joint sprain after falling off my bike. Still haven't fully healed. I decided to take it easy and not resume my normal riding until my shoulder has fully healed.

[@GregoryPinto-s3g]

Whilst I appreciate your sharing with us a recovery ride, I find it bemusing that you would choose to ride one handed and carrying a go-pro to film yourself as you ride. Both hands on the bars seems a safer bet considering what you've recently suffered. Best wishes with your continued recovery.

[@ayshakent6005]

Well done! You're doing amazingly, especially your mind control of your little finger, thats a good sign 👍 great to see you out on the bike again 😊❤

[@patrick_3723]

Amazing to be back out! Chuffed for you & the finger movement! ✌ I find that when I've had set backs and injuries it makes me just appreciate the small stuff when I can finally go on a local spin; Riding with the sun on your face, a tail wind behind you, no rubbing mudguards.. ;)

[@peterharrington8709]

This is a joy to see Juliet. Well done. Pro move just stashing the mudguard too 😄

[@brucebrosius5372]

Woohoo! Fantastic to see you out again! Stay safe.

[@tonypaddler]

It's great to see that lovely smile of yours again 😄 All the best Juliet 👍

[@TubbyTrialTeam]

Good to see you back on it.

[@audriewalkup1754]

I feel for you. The frustration and unknown of if or when everything will heel. I broke my arm mountain biking the same day as you. I sustained class 2 muscle tears and severe carpal joint sprain. Also, I am not a patient person. However, everyday there is slight improvement and honestly, it has only been a few weeks. I suspect you will regain most if not all function by 3 months. Rehab is everything, both physical and mental. Good luck.

[@barrysmith9154]

Well done great to see you out on a bike. Hope to get on the bike over Christmas. I use my bike for fitness.

[@CaptBongo]

HOOYAH for your outside ride. Glad you are back in the saddle. Injury's suck. Keep up the fantastic work.

[@Saxtoo]

Good to see your finger moving. Mine took 3 months after my steroid injection 12 years back. Keep doing your physio exercises with it. You'll get there, and it's little by little, don't forget. 👍

[@jamesmckenzie3532]

Glad you show a lot of progress. It was nine weeks after I had a serious hiking spill before I could ride.

[@rikkich5357]

It is so great to see you so happy back on the bike I was off the bike cz of trapped nerve in neck shoulder so I know how exciting it is to be able to ride and just be out there and ride

[@matauboy]

Great to see you back on the bike. I remember my first ride after eye surgery and how hard it was to have the confidence to believe in what I was seeing. Sounds weird eh!😅

[@dominicbritt]

Pinky Power!! Well done...back in the saddle

[@stee4703]

Amazing, well done! It's not easy after big operations. mudguard issues, typical 😂

[@user-dg7sy8cz3b]

Right On! Keep destroying that fear!

[@peterhearnden7634]

Great to see you back out on the bike.. you chose a nice day for it..

[@jrm1946]

Maybe try a bike mounted camera for a while to keep pressure off arms?

[@SimonBorneman]

Het is fijne om te zien dat je weer aan het genieten ben SUPER 🎉

[@darrenlaithwaite7810]

Well done, good to see you riding again. I would love to get out again but I've lost some of my confidence because of too many near misses where car drivers aren't paying attention.

[@kunamdrib]

Brixham has some cracking hills, I was there back in October, lovely place.

[@juanrobledo941]

Amazing recovery, pretty fast to ride outdoor after your injury. Good luck and enjoy.

[@kendallseaton2621]

I've never smiled so big at someone flexing a pinky finger! lol! Good for you!

[@philsmeanderings7991]

After having a stack that fractured some ribs and finger , what a pleasant surprise it was to fall off again and not be bleeding , missing skin etc. Get some padding for your elbows , shoulders and any other parts . Good for you , never give up.

[@scboulder1985]

Glad to see you are back outdoors. You need one of those camera sticks, that mount to your bike. Cheers

[@Lidia-fg5km]

Ahh this video makes me want to ride my bike again, taking out my vintage Peugeot right now

[@Rancidcreations]

The recovery is going well , it,s hard not getting the ride in I know how that feels ,after operations, it will get better just be patient ,

[@fredcsmith000]

Your a hero

[@joechamma]

Welcome back 😍😍😍

[@hcj1955hjhj]

Ride on 👍☮️😁

[@whichypoohs]

You look so happy

[@JPBVideo]

every ride is going to teach you new things.

[@FraserSamuel]

Little finger moving is a great sign for your recovery! Hopefully your elbow ROM improves too... Stay positive and keep work hard 👏🏽

[@wsbygt]

M o r n i n g ! and an amazingly great Christmas to you!

[@kodiesrevenge]

brilliant .. keep up the good work !🤘

[@ianlawless7481]

Ride ride ride! I got splattered with a fractured pelvis, spinal injuries and a left leg that doesn't want to work all the time. It was vehicle versus me injury and my biggest problem is fear to ride. I don't ride I get depressed. I ride and I am less than I was before and I get depressed. Now in Boston I ride with the wheelie boys and slow all traffic and rule the streets and it is the best healing physically and emotionally I could ask for. Ride Ride Ride!

[@philPJS]

Looks beautiful ... where are you in the UK ?

[@markx9623]

keep it up! and don't forget the mudguard in the bushes ;)

[@LordNormandy]

Do you use 7Mesh trousers? I’m looking for something to mountain bike in during the winter months. Great to see you back out there. 🎉🎉

[@nv400adventurer13]

I broke my back and neck in a sporting accident, the first time back is the hardest. It gets easier tho 😊

[@tjcroft4166]

Juliet, consider putting that stem back in the positive position...just until you recover more. It'll take just a bit more weight off your arms. Cheers

[@andygoldensixties4201]

happy to see you riding again! P.S. when the fenders grow in that bush will you harvest them?

[@wilfwilliams]

Key take away “ take it slow and be a bit patient “ it’s going to be fine just give it time it’s only six weeks ffs❤❤

[@SioLazer]

I can fully appreciate needing to ride outside. The pain can be difficult to parse. Is it because I'm recovering? Should I just push through? At what point am I doing more harm than good? You're definitely not alone

[@mikeparker1286]

Great to see you are getting movement back in your finger! Will you be wearing any protection on your elbow like the low profile MTB elbow pads?

[@Ash_1111]

Well done getting back out on the bike I have to say I'd have done the same with the mudguard! Sod going back home take the damn thing off! 😂

[@meneersjonnie]

At least your arm is a good cam stick😅, Well done

[@thomaskesel5703]

❤

[@JohnWilson-jh5iz]

Think you should have both hands on the bars at all times you don’t want another unfortunate incident

[@a_latyshev]

Yay!

[@cspikes807]

😊

[@rorystorm4284]

Why not mount the camera on the bike? Why hold it all the time?

[@the.communist]

So she can move it at all angles she desires

[@smintken]

Very good that u back on ur bike.

[@TerryRamsey-jg8fm]

Your mud guards are too close to your tires, and to short in the back, you still will receive mud❤❤❤

[@CraigusUK]

get yourself a set of SKS Speed Rocker XL, once they are set up you can take both front and rear off and put them back on in a couple of minutes so when you don't need them you can leave them at home, they take up to 52 tyres, they look so much better than the old style mudguards.

[@weegiewheeler]

fab to see u back out. share plans for 2025 ...

[@georgeskinner2474]

I'm so happy to see you outside and riding again. Your joy is evident. But please, can't you find a way to mount your camera to the bar and not ride one handed? I hate thinking you might take another fall just because you wanted to make us a video.

[@SimonBorneman]

Doe voorzichtig aan en kijk goed uit

[@johnroper7776]

Well done and good to see you back out. As someone has previously said why are you still holding your camera? Just an unnecessary risk especially with your injury.

[@eliotlaugh]

my friend had a broken pedal and stashed his old commuter bike in a bush. Gone when he came back.🤬

[@somersetlevellersmtb5564]

Cycling one handed while videoing not a great idea🤷🏻‍♂️ last thing you need is another crash. GoPro Stem mount maybe?

[@paulhiggins9492]

Undescribable

[@michaelm.3210]

One can make a KZbin channel out of ANYTHING!!! It's just a-m-a-z-i-n-g.
