RE: Use Your Bicycle For Everything
Wow, good for you! We do try to ride bike as much as we can. Our 4 yr old outgrew our bike carrier but, we put him in it anyway when we are going on a longer ride. He is not very good on his bike yet so we do it and are careful. I love riding bike! My hubby use to be a cyclist and he wants to get back into it and I think I would love to do that with him/for him. Neat!
Chayil, you go girl! You can do it! It sounds like you have a good attitude and the smarts to go with it!
Be safe all!

Far out Joan. Recently moved with folks, no car now. I'm thinking of 3-wheeler bike, is yours? Didn't realize you could tote 40 lbs+. And if you have cats, way cool. I had to leave my 15 year friend in a cat sanctuary. Keep on keeping on. Pamela AZ

Welcome me to the bike club!
I just got a Dahon folding bike. I looked all around the town and the internet, and it's the perfect one. Not because it folds, not because it's lightweight, not because of the color. No, I got this bike because of the super-low step-through! I wear long skirts, and the Dahon Ciao P8 was the only one that had a chain guard and a step-through so low that it doesn't push my skirts up to my knees. I didn't even care that this bike could fold, or that it was the best bike out there for my size and other needs, but it is.
Now I expect to be losing quite a bit of weight, as I'll be going to the grocery store and back (about 5 miles round-trip) almost every day, rather than making one big trip weekly in my best friend's car. I'm also saving money on the gym membership I was going to get. Plus, I get to feel the freedom of the open road again, after a lifetime of feeling hemmed in by my own lack of transportation.

Nice article. Using a bike does help save money but the best part is the exercise. My bike is gone due to a flood, but eventually, I will get back to riding. I used to use a Dahon bike-the fold-up kind so that I could bring it on the trains--a very cool way to travel to different places.

That's fabulous! My dad is also 70 and he's been working out for 30 years or more. Not in a 'going to the gym' way, just healthy exercising at home. One of his exercise aids is a broomstick with weights on the end! It's very important to keep fit and healthy and he actually puts me to shame - as do you! By the way, do you carry all that weight on your bicycle to make it harder to pedal? Keep up the good work anyway, you are a credit to us all.

YOU GO GIRL! What a impressive thing for me to tell others, thank you for sharing this. We live 3 miles away from a grocery store AND I just hate to get into the car unless it is necessary because of the price of gas, BUT this is one thing I can do to get myself out & back into shape with and I am only in my mid 50's!
Thanks for sharing & please be careful.

Joan, you are so blessed to be so healthy! I'm in my 50's, and I don't think I could do that! Of course, that's my fault, because I hate to exercise! Keep up the good work -- I wish I lived by you, I would (try to) ride with you!
