A year and a half ago I was a couch potato with a heart problem that the Dr's said I would have for the rest of my life. I decided to do something about it, I choose riding. Best thing I ever did. There have been no signs of that heart problem in over a year, and Im in better shape at 39 then I was at 29, not bad. Actually riding has saved me money, I sold my hole in the water to pour my money into a month ago, my boat. Since biking I had only used my boat once.
