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...

J, I told you I needed babysiters! LOL

HP, do you of a Bicycle friendly route from the Evansville area to Michigan City?

Ok, not much to brag about, but I jogged 1.5 miles and walked the last 1/2 mile. It's a start.

JC

Jc,

I will check

I am from Evansville orig. If I remember correctly, it would be straight up HWY41 to Michigan city..all HWY

Are you still considering Michigan in September???

Yes, I can get to Evansville using the underground railroad bike trail.

let me do some checking and Iwill get back with you.

I know some people from the area I will try and get a hold of

HP

You can google plus size bike shorts and find a few sites.

I got mine from Performance Bike. I'm a 22-24 and I wear a 2X.

Performance Women’s Classic Short @ Performance Bicycle are the shorts I wear.

Hi all, did the 23 mile run tonite and it was so great. I can go so much faster with these tires, and the ass hurt, but not as long as before. I think I just have to get used to the new seat.

D, Way to go! That's a good solid ride. I know, it's 1:45 am and I am wide awke. This should not happen tomorrow. I hope.

JC

D

Awesome ride! You're rocking chica!

JC I hope you got some shut eye.

d,

i am jealous

i have not ridden since Sunday. i have been working overtime at work and not getting home until too late. It stinks.

We are only working 9 today so we can ride...

I have emailed my friends to check on the route from EVV to Michigan City.

My bike is still in the damn shop.....grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I have to call them today it has been almost a week. Okay well 5 days which is more than half a week lol.

JC you are a true badass if you ride all thew way up here.

JC does that get you anywhere close to Columbus Ohio? If so I'll have to buy you dinner.

If I do ride up there I will change my signature to Banzai BadAss

JC

J, I'm not sure yet I think I would be hanging close to the Indiana/Illinois state line.

JC

BTW, only one cup of coffee today!

JC

JC, good job on the one cup of coffee!!! Way to go!!

BG, call them and threaten them with your temper tantrum....that should get your bike fixed FAST!!!

I love those long rides out in the country, they are so peaceful and really clear your mind. A car goes by maybe once in any 20 minute time period. DH and I have some of our best conversations out there on the road. I think we are back to getting road bikes again. We really think that they would help.

J, dont they have different road bikes. Sport, touring and racing???? What kind do you have?
