[QUOTE="Heretic1, post: 1215657, member: 307769"] I agree fully with [USER=55568]@Yorksman[/USER] I have had a bike I hadn't ridden in any seriousness for a number of years. After I was 'labelled' (my version of being diagnosed) as one of the elements of my new activity regime I got it out again. Around where I live there are many old railway lines that are now converted to trails. Initially I found it quite hard - and managed around 4-5k, with s number of stops! I'm now routinely doing 20-30 k - and picking some of the more hilly routes - which initially I could only walk up! ...... I now love getting out on the bike .... Weather permitting of course. I can't believe just how active cycling is. I was out yesterday, I did 26k and burned 850 Cals ..... According to my Fitbit. I've even got the 'memsahib' out on her bike that had never been used, and going to get a decent second hand one for number 2 son (he's 16) so we can drag him away from his PlayStation and do something as s family! It gets my vote! [/QUOTE]
