First things first... Heal thy back! Even a few weeks too soon could put you in a bad situation.

I've been riding on the road Saturdays, but less than one hour so far and under 20 MPH. My heart rate jumps up and takes time to recover even when leaving from a stop sign. It will take some time to build up the cardio at a healthy rate. I say October for MTB because our steep roller coaster climbs can spike the HR and leave an unfit rider breathless, so a base level is needed first.
