Just joined the group - live on long island but am also am beginning to cycle...enjoy routes on Long Island, NYC and Westchester to help burn the calories...does anyone else enjoy cycling for fun?
I enjoy biking to work everyday over the "biggest hill in the city", the Williamsburg Bridge. Going from Brooklyn to Manhattan on this walkway is a workout, but also very beautiful!
I've recently taken up biking from my home in the bronx to work in Queens. It's a bit tough (I'm a beginner) and a little tricky to avoid potholes and cabdrivers, lol, but I really enjoy the ride. Plus it makes me feel super healthy!
I used to ride a lot when I was a kid, Manhattan, 75th & 3rd, to Rockaway on a regular basis. Used to ride around Central Park with little effort. Wish I had that body now. I started walking in January and now walk 6 miles each day. I would like to get a bike but I don't want to buy it and then stop using it. Maybe I'll do the garage sale thing and find a cheap one first to see if I'm into it.
Anyone considering doing an Ironman after this weekend? Say next July, give your self a year to get ready.
