Go go AAThlete! A former cyclist myself with triathlon. I'm signed up as backup for a 100 km Oxfam Trailwalker event in 3 weeks time. I hope I don't get called in because I haven't been training.
Have fun training for it!
I read your post about your lowered Max HR after AF... very interesting!

Good to see you AA. You have been very quiet lately. You will do it. You put me to shame. Time for me to go out for a walk..........I'm really easy to get along with once people learn to worship meComment

Go AAthlete!
I went for a real bike ride yesterday along the river(lots of climbs & decents), I realized my stationary bike in the house doesn't do a darn thing! Not even close!
The only thing worth stealing is a kiss...:flower:

lycra
Abolutely right, St Jude, - ditto with running - Also went for a bike ride today and feeling great, but I have to ask - they make the saddles so uncomfortable because...?!
Have to also say that as I live in France I am surrounded by avid cyclists - it's the national sport here so at some times of the year you see as many cyclists as cars on the roads - it's great! It's also amazing to see the age of some of the cyclists who put me to shame - there's me chugging along at what I think is a reasonable speed, or walking up the hill that's too steep to actually ride up (for me anyway), and a man 'd'un certain age' just cruises right on past. I think it must be the lycra - you're certainly not a cyclist here unless you have the gear and the fluorescent lycra is an absolute must - I'm not sure that the French public are ready to see me in such attire so I'll just keep peddeling in my sweat pants and t-shirt - for the time being, anyway!
Bon courage, and happy peddaling to all of you
