Nice!!!

I want to get a new bike too . . . I've started riding again post op but my bike is almost 20 years old. I think it 's time to replace it! My husband and kids have been riding with me on the bike trails so it's turned into a family thing which is good because it gets the kids off the laptop and moving too. I definitely would not have been biking 6 months ago!

Great! Happy biking

Awesome - have fun and be safe !!!

That's great! I've actually rode my bike yesterday audit was amazing. I'm 10 weeks post op and last year this times couldn't even ride to the corner of my street and I'm the third house from the corner!! Lol! So exciting to see the progress in weight loss and endurance!

Great!

I saw your post last night and made me want to go look at bikes actually a hybrid crossover. I am glad for you. What kind did you get?

I started riding again. I am 7 weeks post op. have lost 24 pounds. I have a great app that runs on the iPhone that keeps track of average and max speed and time on the bike. Even shows a map of the route you cover.

Did I mention its pink?! :)

I bought a bike, too :) I've been having a blast riding with the kids. Well, I was having fun- now it's mid 90's in Florida and a little too toasty for biking! Looking forward to some cooler evenings! Have fun!

I saw your post last night and made me want to go look at bikes actually a hybrid crossover. I am glad for you. What kind did you get?

I bought a Raleigh Detour 4.5. It's a hybrid. I sit straight up. It's fast and comfortable. I could not find a Trek that fit me. This bike works great and has 24 gears. Raleigh used to make the original "English Racer".

What is the name of the iPhone app?

The phone app is Wahoo Fitness. It works for bikers and runners and works with the heart rate chest belt when walking. Can't get it to monitor HR when biking. Have to call tech support, but I have a Polar watch unit if I really want to do that. I like that you don't have to add a device to your bike wheel. I already have one of them for my Cateye unit that doesn't light up. The iPhone is very bright and readable.
