Re: It IS about the Bike!

[Guest guest]

Hi.. I love to bike ride.. I feel it strengthens my ankles. I have to say it

isnt always easy especially riding against the wind.. but Gretchen is right.. it

clears the brain and stretches my legs and good for my heart.. I have a 6 speed

bike and it has been a excellent ride for me..I have difficulty with walking but

so far I can still ride a bike.. I love it..

That sounds great, Gretchen. The last time I rode a two-wheeler was when I

was about 5 years old, and I still remember the freedom. Does anyone here

have/ride three, or four, wheeled bikes?

Gretchen,

It's so funny you mentioned biking. For some reason I already thought you were

an avid biker. I just got one from my sister and her husband for my birthday.

Two weeks ago I was in K-Mart test driving bikes! I had a blast and it is very

calming. It's a mountain bike, not the $1,000 ones, but a good ol' Huffy. They

had it equipped with a basket, lights, a horn, of course a helmet, all the cool

stuff.

Last night I drove to a restaurant and picked up some escargot for

dinner!!....It is so peaceful when you can't here a thing. I like to ride when

the sun is going down, not too hot, just right. I'm just doing a little at a

time and it helps with the back pain. I find my posture to be better. I'm not

up to a 45 minute drive, just a little at a time. No mountains down here, but do

have many big rocks and you're right, if you hit them the wrong way...goodbye

for now..

Gretchen, it sounds so much fun but the only bike I ride is the station bike at

the gym, I know it doesn't go any place for me to fall down.

Enjoy
