Hey Daniel, I was also inspired by that book. In fact I emailed Mike Magnuson and thanked him for the experience (much like my own). He emailed me right back encouraging me to keep going. As far as inspiration goes, well I'm just tired of being fat and always worrying about my health. I lost my youngest brother recently and vowed that I would find a way to not repeat his story. He is my inspiration. So happens that I love cycling and this is my way out. I am just looking to get healthy at this point, but who knows maybe someday I will be thin and proud to wear these clown clothes they call cycle wear Good luck friend.
