5'9" at 207 this morning. Down from 232.

We don't have many hills in these parts. Wouldn't know what to do if I found one.

6' 3", 220#. Love to climb! So much that sometimes I get off my bike and walk.

5'9" about 217 give or take. At least I'm down from my maximum density of around 230.

Currently I'm at 219 and I climb. ALOT! I have no choice, I live in Chattanooga Tennessee and there is no direction that doesn't involve a hill of some size. A nice one right out of the driveway on my commute to work and a good climb at the finish coming home. These hills have brought me from 279 to 219.

Slow and steady will climb almost anything,

5'7" @ 296, up from 267 last January. I just ride my bike. While I go up the hills slow and steady, I sure do bomb down the descents.

6'0", 300 lbs (+ or - 3 lbs.)

Can't say I love climbing, but I purposely ride a loop that includes a killer hill about 3/4 of the way into it, leaving the remaining 1/4 for cool-down. Hope to upgrade to a light touring bike (like a Jamis Aurora or Rocky Mountain Sherpa) this spring to try some longer distances. Right now I'm limited to my short commute to and from school, but I do it Monday to Friday, rain or shine. So far I've lost about 15 pounds and have levelled off, but my resting heart rate has dropped by 15%.

LOL

Unlike some, I will never leave the clydesdale stable - I have a solid body build (big boned?). At my absolute fittest I was 203 lbs.



Here's me on a 61cm bike - 6'4" and about 245lbs.

Happy to have a go at any hills etc.

1/1/2009 - 5'-11", 288#

11/5/2009 - still 5'-11" but I'm now 225#.

I've been stuck at 225# - 228# for a while now. I'd still like to lose another 25# or so.

5'11 - 304lbs down from close to 400 at the start of the year.

I've been at 304 for the past 2 weeks so I'm getting frustrated but I'm still eating right and workout everyday. I'm training for a 5k plus I ride.

5' 11" or 6', depending on my posture, and probably around 225 right now. I don't particularly care for climbs, but I'm too stubborn to quit going up once I've started.

268 and 6'. At least that was before my road trip filled with junk yesterday. I climb everytime I ride, as I live on the middle of a hill. Either climb going out, or climb coming back, but I will climb. I personally don't mind it, as I challenge myself with it. It's an awesome feeling when you can go up that hill one gear higher than the last time.
