So far from the cycling im not losing anymore weight but gaining some rather nice legs and butt instead so I am happy with that!
Well I hope so it has certainly given me the taste for it

Congratulations, incidentally a metric century is only another 16 miles.
But seriously, time for you to check out woman tours cross country bike journeys. They are fantastic beyond belief and the average mileage is 60-80 miles per day. Mommy camp with bicycle touring. What could be better?
I am working up to 50 miles 3 x a week in preparation for one in May 2012.
Carry one with your good work and congrats to you again.
