All in all this biking has been doing my body good
That's Great News! I also went for my annual physical on12/2 and after losing a 100# since I started riding, the doc took me off the bp meds I'd been on for 20 years. I've gone from 350 to 240 in the last year and a half. Just concerned about keeping it off and losing a little more.
