Hello there Band fans....I got banded March 28th-2007.

I told myself....Bycyling would be a very good choice. Fresh air, muscles working for the sake of "Cardio". After one week passed--in April. I purchased three new bikes for me and my two sons. I have defeated many things doing that. No more not riding with my children--we ride as a crew (family). We could not conquer the hill on my street. We used to stop 3 to 4 times before getting to the top ( I did). So now the wheels have turned. My kids ask me---"Daddy can we stop--our legs are burning". Thank God I am doing well now. Now with 21 pounds gone---but just riding bikes. I am ready for the next Journey...The 1st fill--I am looking forward to the next 4 to 6 weeks--maybe 12 or 20 pounds gone...who knows...:faint: this is how I feel on many days after my ride. Today--(8.5 miles) It was walking, riding around the fair in my town--but that is what my speedometer said when it was all over...

Here ya go JC you can read about it. Jogger's nipple - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

You can these for it

RunningFit.Net

Or just use bandaids.

Woohoo I am super excited!

Deanna that trail is way across the state. I live just outside of Detroit. We have some nice metroparks around here though. This is where I usually ride

Metro Parks - Lower Huron

It connects to two other parks and is a pretty hilly ride.

BG

Why didn't I know you were in Micigan???? I thought you were in the south like GA or something?

I'm your neighbor to the south and I'm always driving up there to see my sweetie. Well I take a left at Ann Arbor, but we're practically next door!

Deanna-

It would be a riot to be with you in Vegas. I'm sure we'd be laughing the entire weekend! I can't wait!!!

JC-

You're the man with a ton of vacation time, would you do Vegas? Your cycling buddies will be there.

And, can I tell you, only two days ago did I notice that Bicycling was misspelled on this thread's header...

Thanks for the info, they are some serious researchers on this thread!

Catrike 700 = loungechair on wheels :-) CATRIKE 700

I am so sore and tired this morning I did about a 50 yard full on wide open sprint last night when I finished walking (pay back for not making 3 miles). Feeling it today!!

JC

Vegas, I will have to check the info on the event date, time and duration. I can probably be talked into hang gliding off the top of Mount Everest, so Vegas shouldn't be to difficult.

JC

LMAO JC....that would be great huh, handgliding!!!!

BG....we have absolutely NOTHING like that around here....how nice for you!!!LOVE it....it looks so peaceful and nice...

Juli, we are gonna have a freakin blast in Vegas...I can't wait!!!!!!

OH NSV here....before when we would ride our bikes, DD (12) would always pass me or be up a hill before me and be happy afterwards, talking and such. ME???? Couldn't talk for hours afterwards...and not happy either....well, last nite she went with us and she couldn't keep up with me going up some of the hills!!!!! Talk about an ego boost!!!! I of course am recovering MUCH quicker after going up the hills now too!!!!

Deanna-

Recovering is a great indicator of cardio health and strength.

You rock!

JC-

You're a nut. We'll find some extreme sport for you in Las Vegas...promise.

I am pretty much right smack dead center between Ann Arbor and Detroit.

I do say Y'all a lot though. Maybe that's why I seem southern.

JC, no not serious researching I just remembered seeing the nipguards at the running fit store and laughing my ass off about them. No Offense of course. Girls have a bra to keep the chafing away.

I have the hella bad eye infection today from sleeping in my contacts last night. I could barely drive. It had better get better so I can bike tonight.

BG, nothing wrong with y'all. Hope your eye gets better. Has anyone ever tried blindfolded biking? HMMMM

I told my boss that I had Anal Glaucoma this morning. He asked me what the heck that was and I said it means you will not see my ass until Monday. It's noon now, I think I am going to go find some trouble to get into!

Juli, Extreme Vegas? I'm there! If you have a "hard Date" I will put in for the Vacation time Monday so I will be locked in.

JC

Take a look at the Thing that I just found O'Hell!!!!!

Las Vegas Recreation - Golf, Spas, Extreme Adventures, Outdoors, Kids

WOW...way to go.....don't cha feel good?

oh man, this is gonna be sooooo much fun.......Viva las Vegas!!!!!

Thanks Juli, I never really thought of it that way. I guess I should start paying more attention to my body and they way it reacts to hills!!!!

Hey, I think the spa stuff looks like FUN!!!!!

JC

I'm coordinating the planning committee here on LBT, I'll definately see what we can find that's fun!!! I think you'll be alone bungie jumping or sky diving but Hummer dessert tours could get folks going.

The date is February 1st through the 3rd. But hold out until the middle of next week. The volunteers and I (6 of us!) are having a virtual meeting on Monday. We're going to set the date in stone then.

WOO HOO

Where is everyone tonight? Out on hot dates???? I will be married 14 years on Sunday..we don't have hot dates anymore....We have freakin hot bike rides now!!!!!
