Hello from San Diego!
I am just getting into riding, hoping to continue and shed a few pounds while I'm at it. Also, looking to learn more about bike mechanics and possibly restore older bikes. I think it could be a fun hobby.

Re. shedding weight, cycling helps, but diet is paramount; As you get more exercise and beef up your leg muscles, you'll be hungier. Sugar is awful, bread too.

Htere are a lot of great trails to ride in S.D. and as you mentioned riding is a great way to lose a bit of weight.........just stay away from the Beers after that century.
