I created my own hole to slip into. Alcohol abuse. I would go on a binge for weeks- months- years and the weight would go up and up and up until the next dose of reality would set in. Then it was daily exercise, clean eating and grudges against booze and boozers. Rerun the script over and over again. Then it was back on…

Salsa, merengue, bachata. Gypsy Kings.

I know how you feel Sijomial. I have issues where my right knee will swell up out of nowhere every 2 or 3 weeks, sometimes the size of a softball. It doesn't bother me much but people have asked me why am I limping? If they hadn't said anything, I probably wouldn't have noticed. I did have it checked over a year ago and…

And repeat..... 7 more days, 5 more rides, 2 more gym sessions. 37.2 miles this morning in 2:19:07. Tue to Fri: (4) - 22.6 +/- rides. Total for the week: 127.54 miles. 3 lbs lighter than last Sunday. Great day everyone.

Just a suggestion, not knowing how remote you are, do you have Craigslist where you live? Would they have a selection of bikes to choose from? I always tell beginners no to invest too much on their first bike. Buy a used cheap one (several cuts above Walmart) and see if it woks for you. You can always upgrade the bike (or…

Sorry guys. No time to post.... but plenty of time to ride. Last week: Third week in a row with 5 rides and over 100 miles. Monday 2019.08.05 ~~ 22 mile "fitness" ride. Put in in gear and go hard. Tuesday 2019.08.06 ~~ 21 mile "fitness" ride. Wednesday 219.08.07 ~~ At the gym fighting gravity for an hour. Thursday…

Spend time in Youtube. Do you homework.

Very nice going Sijomial. All that money going to a good cause. Fantastic. You sure mended very quickly. I'm in the US, but In May I had 10 days in Scotland. I rented a car for a week's tour of the Highlands. Driving in the opposite side of the road, was really very easy. Just follow the 2 or 3 cars ahead of you and do…

Friday 2019.07.26, at the gym. No time to do a bike ride but always time to spend an hour fighting gravity. 2 more rides this weekend. Not exactly doing them with stopwatch in hand yet, but pleased my time is getting much better. A few minutes more, a few minutes less is all the same to me, but the faster I go, the harder…

All 8 rides on the…

New to MFP but not to cycling. Making a comeback after a disastrous 6 months where I just "fell of the wagon" as they say. Eating crap. Drinking lots. No exercise. No desire to take care of my fitness. Kind of a burn out. I did a century I do every year in November that depending on the schedule, is 3 or 4 days before my…
