Personally I like cycling out in the country where you meet the occasional obstacles like the wind and hills making it more interesting. The long term effects of gentle cycling are many, but do we know what the long term effects of 'eyeballs out' cycling will be on say a 66 year old who has already suffered two heart attacks? Poor old Andrew found out to his cost.

Re: Post your daily exercise routine
I shall be away from home for the next couple of weeks and will try to report my progress while on holiday. The cost of using the Internet while on board the P&O ship Britannia will be quite frightening, but out of loyalty to my friends on here I will do my best to post. But instead of posting on this thread I will be moving to Bob's Bits - in Other Leisure Activities. I hope some will follow me there, but if not, I'll see you in a fortnight.......Hurrah......I hear you say.....| Thread Tools | |
