For me (and I know this sounds strange) sometimes I just get tired of cycling. About once every year or so, I look at the Black Knight bike and say "Ugh!" It's probably because I'm a little older (almost 62) and have been cycling for sooooooo long and sooooooo far. And that's when I break out my walking shoes and start up my walking program. But then about two months later, I look at the walking shoes and say "Ugh!!" and get back on the bike, and wonder why I stopped riding in the first place.

Well, last week I looked at the bike and said "Ugh!" The thought of getting on the machine just didn't turn me on. So, I'm back to walking for a while.

So here's a thread for us cyclists that love to walk, too. We can talk about shoes and hills and walking surfaces and the pounding walking gives our knees lol . . . Questions and answers, experiences, likes and dislikes . . .

It's great to know two languages - Bicycling and Walking.
