Why the bike? Well about seven and a half months ago I decided that I wanted to get fit again so I decided to get a bike. That has been one of the greatest decisions I've made in my life. Two months after I started riding I stopped smoking and haven't felt so good in a long time. I ride primarily for fitness, but cycling offers such great secondary bonuses as transportation, exploration, and stress relief.

Anyway, I'm glad to hear everyone is enjoying cycling as much as me, keep it up.
