Yes Heronh it is a good problem but to expensive to buy a tire and tube twice a month. :smile: There is also the problem it could cause a wreck if I were going down hill or in a turn at that time. As far as running I have never seen a runner with a smile on there face. LOL I don't know how people do it, I'm sure there are…

Things going good here. I now have 132 miles on my new tires, and that is 5 more than I had on the last set before they blew. So I am hoping the higher PSI has made the difference and I won't have that problem again. I am just 32 short of making my goal for the month with 4 riding days left in the month. I take Friday and…

At least you two are maintaining! That is way better than the alternative. Good job on that. I got a great 21 and a half mile ride in today 2700 calories burned. it is a beautiful day here in Ohio.

Nice DebSue! 100 miles is great! The scales were good to me this week. I dropped 4 more. Have a great weekend everyone!

I admire you for laying off the coffee Heronh. I refuse to give that one up. lol John I find the bike helps my knees also. They have been feeling a little better with all the riding. I'm getting close to my goal of 240 miles for the month of August. 8/1 - 20 miles 8/3 - 12 miles 8/4 - 12 miles 8/5 - 12 miles 8/6 - 12 miles…

I got my 12 miles in today and doing great with eating. However I did not do great with eating last Friday night. All though I allow for a treat night I still have to watch it so I am not expecting much on the scale. But who knows maybe since I only had a pound last week it might catch up and be good to me. I eat 1800 a…

That was a good article you posted yesterday Hammer. I can agree with the shorts and even the attitude she has. However when you have been as heavy as I have no one wants to see the skin and yes they do judge because I have heard it first hand. She is living in a dream world and probably has not ever been more than a few…

So put 14 miles on today. With that and it being 31 days this month I am still a little ahead of goal of 240 miles. I hope there wont be anymore mishaps. I am half way there with 122 miles as of today. This is from yesterdays ride.

It is definitely good to have the encouragement of the forums and friends here. Got my tires Friday went for 17 miles yesterday. Going to head out for another 10 or 15 this afternoon. I hope they hold up this time around. It's pretty discouraging when things like that go wrong.

Well got new tires see if I can make some miles up. 8/1 - 20 miles 8/3 - 12 miles 8/4 -12 miles 8/5 -12 miles 8/6 -12 miles 8/8 -15 miles 8/10 - 8 miles 8/15 17 miles Total: 108 miles Goal: 240 miles Remaining: 132 miles

Diet is going good waiting on new tires either tomorrow or Friday. Will do some biking this weekend to try to make up some miles.

Well small maybe large set back. I had another tire blowout. Second it 3 weeks. I'm guessing it is because of my 335 lbs weight. Two bike shops suggested a higher psi and slightly larger tire. So I'm trying that but the tires won't be in until Friday. So I got 8 in yesterday but nothing more until this weekend. I'm still…

Good job czymom! I am right on goal or a little over. 8/1 - 20 miles 8/3 - 12 miles 8/4 -12 miles 8/5 -12 miles 8/6 -12 miles 8/8 -15 miles Total: 83 miles Goal: 240 miles Remaining: 157 miles

Doing good here in Ohio. Got a 15 mile ride in yesterday and have been eating well.

Got 14 and a half miles in this morning 1700 cals burned. Now to clean the house, how many calories do you get for that. Lol

Thanks DebSue, its like they say you never forget how to ride a bike. I even took a video while riding yesterday when the train came by. Lol I would never do that on the road but on the bike path with no one in sight I did. I dropped three more pounds this week for a total of 16 off of the amount that I gained recently.…

I hope to hear good report from your doc John. I got my 12 miles in today did most of it in the evening after work didn't get out at lunch time. here is a pic from my ride today with the beautiful Longaberger basket in the background above the trees..
