As much as I tried, I simply could not motivate myself to workout after work. After years of failing, I realized I don't have time to be trapped in a steel cage for an hour a day so I started biking instead. Now I get 2 hours of good exercise each day and save a ton on fuel and wear on my pig heavy truck.
I've only filled my gas tank once since August and I still have half a tank. My truck still has under 14000 miles I think it is actually appreciating in value. And I have lost about 30 pounds in the process. This is a real life changer indeed. It just makes so much sense--I can't believe I waited so long. I ride everywhere; not "just" to work. My bank lets me park inside the lobby--either that or I'll take my business elsewhere. I shop local fruits and veggies in open air markets where I can have my bike at my side--I only do business with those that are biker friendly. F the rest.
