    YIPEEE !!!..I Got a NEW BIKE !!!

    OK.... now must be the time to get with a fitness program, for me. Yesterday I walked into our local thrift shop and there she sat...The bike of my DREAMS..
    She is a very neat old vintage balloon tire, BLUE HUFFY beach bike....It was magic. Since she is a Huffy with balloon tires and magic...I named her Puffy of MAGIC DRAGON FAME. I am polishing her up and putting a big basket on front...a loud horn, lights and then Watch out...here I come.
    I am wondering about how many miles would be a good goal to start with ?? I do the stair climber and ab lounger and walk about 3 miles 2 or 3 times a week. Not exactly what I really think that a good exercise program should be...any suggestions are welcome. Riding in sand is harder than on pavement so if it is 2 miles to the beach and 2 miles back...how many miles on the beach would be a realistic place to start without hurting myself ??

          New Bike

          Hey I ride a bike all the time. No choice, but have come to really enjoy it. Just wish I lived in the country. I'm always dodging cars. Make sure you get a good lock and use it. I've had 3 bikes stolen in the last 2 years because I didn't lock them and one they just clipped the lock. Try a couple of miles at first or even more. If you get tired you can always walk it. I do that alot. Don't forget a water bottle too. Pleasant riding. :elk:

              Great ideas...I MUST HAVE THOSE STREAMERS...the colors are perfect..
              I will need a water bottle...maybe just one to put in my big basket ??
              Cars will be an issue...even on the beach. Here in Northern Florida, they let them drive on the sand...Hadn't thought about a lock ???? I may have to look into that.
