I had a doctor tell me once (when I was younger) that my ideal weight is wherever I feel the best at. Then I was riding century rides I was 6'1" and 190-195 and I felt good.
Well in the last 15 years I had stopped riding, life got in the way. In June of this year at 255 Lbs I started to ride again, slowly at 5-6 miles in 35 minutes every few days, then more and more. Now at 228 and doing a 4.12 minute mile and riding 15+ miles at a time (50% hills) I am loving it! I have roughly 25 more pounds to go to hit my target. But I am already feeling good so I might settle at 200. But I have always used the "Feel Good" rule for my weight. Seems to work for me
