Has anyone taken up Bycyling?

Good evening everybody!

B: I am so glad you're home and doing well!!! You sure had us worried! Don't push yourself too hard until you get clearance from the cardiologist!

So I need to brag. My DH was on TV tonight on the news. He's been on before, but he is most proud of this particular field that he is in charge of! Here's the link if you'd like to see!

Semio6: World?s Top 10 Best Biking Trails According to the National Geographic

Anyone want to hit all 10 with me?

[OH Juli 15]

B-

Dude, your body told you to settle the hell down. Glad you are listening.

I'm sure you scared the beegeeses out of your wife. And don't rush the recovery. There is time for that once you are cleared.

Carol,

Cute video clip. Does the dog live with you? If so which one? And what's his/her name?

Good job to the DH and the pup.

I am officially out of my funk.

I will hit up all ten. Maybe before you are 90 and I am 50?

[OH Juli 15]

I heart you BG, even with the vast age difference between us.

[babygrl1234 6]

I heart you too.

Even if I am only 12.

[OH Juli 15]

That would put me at 52. It occurs to me though that a person born now would be 40 years my junior.

Everyone, this comes from when we were riding and exhausted, I had been bemoaning my pending old age all weekend. At a stopping point, to said to BG, "One day when we are old, when I am 90 and you are 50, we will look back on this horrible day with fondness."

Welcome back BG!!

This is just a reminder.

I'm walking in the March of Dimes March for Babies this SUnday, May 4th. With the love and support of my family I've already exceeded my initial goal of $100. Now I'm aspiring to reach $200. Think of the babies.

Don't wanna talk about it, but my weight is climbing.

Just got back from my echo stress test. Hopefully, this will be the last of the tests. I feel kind of like Cheech in last week's Grey's Anatomy. Maybe not $120K later, but many, many $K later, the cardiologist came to the same conclusion my mom did when the wife called her from the ER - Vaso-Vagal Syncope... Ya think.

On the other hand, he said that I was in great shape for someone who has been more than 100 pounds overweight their entire adult life. At > predicted HRmax, I could easily provide 1-2 word answers, and at >> HRmax, I still did not reach exhaustion after several minutes. The echo was normal. All of the hard work earlier in the year paid off - just need to get off my ass & back on the bike. No shower for 24 hours (Holter monitor), but after that - watch out :cool2: He told me that there was no restriction to exercise - ride as hard and long as I could.

He's also a bycyler - belongs to the Greater Dallas Bicyclists, which sponsored the Lancaster Country ride TX did a few weeks ago.
