I will also bike,..............................later
Along time ago in a place far away,
OK corny, but,
twenty-some years before now I was an avid biker and runner. time and age and weight gain have taken their toll on me, so I have decided to make some changes.
I have been on a weight reduction plan for a while now and so now is the time to begin a more disciplined exercise program.
I would like to get back to biking and running.
I must start somewhere.
How about a $5 yard sale gem?
Here it is in my living room.
Some furniture rearrangement was needed, and the missus thinks it's "hideous".
No matter, I needed a push and here it sets every day asking to be used.
Good for me, I will be nudged every day.
The original owner still had the manual and they have the handlebars on backward. I will fix that asap.very hard to ride in this configuration.
Now I know why it was sold.
DUH.
it has a little computer on it that tells me many things.
Mostly I must ride for 50 minutes to equate 100 calories. Who knew?
This will change as my endurance and ability go back up.
TTFN,
S.
