I've started ride a bike again after a 10 year hiatus. Last month I spent the night in the hospital after suffering what seemed to be a heart attack. It turned out to be trouble with my gallbladder (thankfully). one of the tests was the infamous stress test where they put you one a treadmill and make you wish you were dead. I was glad to find out that everything cardiac wise was fine, but I had no idea I was as out of shape as I was. Most of my time is spent behind a desk and I'm not as active as I once was. I started walking around the block and was thinking about getting a bike when a friend gave me one three weeks ago.( He manages apartments and it was one that was left when the tenants moved out) It's a Schwinn mtn bike, not the latest and greatest but it suits my needs for riding around town. I've been riding 2-3 miles a day and I'm surprised at much better I feel. So I got to wondering, how many cyclists are here on the forum?
