My heath is killing me if I don't do something to change it. My Bday, I wanted a bike for some exercise. Wife bought a cruiser because I like them. (ok, I kinda picked it so my fault) It's a Wal-Mart bike and I love it. Just so happens, it don't work because we have to many hills. I screwed up and now going to have to wait a bit to save some money to buy another bike. Hate it, just the way it is. But I do enjoy riding it in the driveway and front of the house or I may make a stationary exercise bike out of it.
Sure there's a Trek bike I looked at and rode, but I can't see ever owning it and honestly, if a bike gives me exercise and helps weight loss, I'll ride it and be happy!
So if the tires hold air, there's a seat, handlebars and pedals, ride it and enjoy it! :-)
