[BikerP]

**Thank you PastryPam for the encouragement!! I had already registed with sparklepeople about 2 weeks ago. I really haven't had time to look at their site and play around with it. I might this weekend.***

As for Brenda, that sounds like a pretty steep hill. :-) All I can tell you is something is better than nothing. When I first started biking, I biked mainly to work, didn't care to bike home too much. And the sad part, in the beginning, was that I would still be discouraged, because I didn't feel like I accomplished anything in biking, just because I couldn't bike home. And then one day...I'm like WAIT A MINUTE. Just because I'm not biking home doesn't make my accomplishment any less. So I became satisified biking to work, even though it really is the easiest thing to do. This has been my first week biking home, and even though it's been a struggle, I know eventually I will get better. Just as you will. Start off slow, if you can only bike part of that hill, then that's better then leaving your bike at home and not doing anything at all. Also try just biking on the weekends, just to see what struggles you have. I started biking on the weekends to my job, just to see if I would have any issues, and that's how I knew biking home would be my struggle.

Just remember, a little bit can go a long way.

Good Luck!!!
