    Went out for a ride today, it started out great. Ran into a couple of road cyclists (expensive bikes, full kits, road cycling pedals/shoes, the whole bit) today. I was stopped drinking water. Was asked what I was doing, said training. For what I was asked, for half and full century tours I said. I was told to get a proper road bike, get rid of the junk I have and then road ride, that I am not a proper cyclist. The two guys laughed and took off. Well to say that I was discouraged is an under statement. So I just cut off my ride and came home. Am feeling sad right now, all of the miles I have ridden, all the weight I have lost, and I love to ride tours. Oh well......maybe I will just give up and sell my bike and be done with it. Sorry for the rant, but I feel we are all friends here and I have no one else to vent to.
    ANACONDA469 - Don't you tell me for that you are going to pay even a second's attention to those two utter and complete A**HOLES for what they said to you!!! Don't you dare hang it up! You should have told them to STFU and keep their crappy opinions to themselves!!!! You HAVE come a long way and maybe you're not going to be competing for 1st place in the next Tour de France, but you're setting and reaching goals and getting fitter all the time! All a better bike does is cost more and maybe make it easier. You're getting more training benefit out of the bike you have. Besides, you're not in the tours to win, you're in them for the enjoyment and camraderie of it. Screw them. And if you ever see them again, please give them my regards (tell them to EFF OFF) and wave to them for me, but I only want you to wave one finger...

    Pardon my language...but for crying out loud. Why do some people have to be so horrible. Just plain bullies.

    Love Dave's response! And echo it wholeheartedly!

    Anaconda - please just keep going! You are doing this for YOU and YOUR goals...not for them and their goals.

    I bought a bike last January after not having ridden a bike (well the non stationary variety) for probably 30 years. I got a Schwinn 7 speed (really...I live in FL where it is all flat when would I ever need the 21 speeds of the next bike up). I immediately signed myself up for a Sprint duathlon in June. When I got there I was really surprised to see that everyone else there did have a racing bike! Looking at all those other skinny tiny seats on those bikes all I could think was how uncomfortable my big butt would be on that! LOL! I had a goal for the duathlon and I beat it by 10 minutes. Yep, in a one on one bike race against any of these other riders, I was totally out of my league. In my race against my own goal, I was a winner!!!

    Spending more time on the exercise bike each morning, since I don't have my sweet doggie to snuggle with before work. That has helped me make up some miles and the mornings don't seem quite as lonely

    Got a decent 1.7 mile lunch walk in earlier this afternoon. There was much sunshine and the temp was a balmy 30F which was wonderful!
