I had been hoping to go touring at some point. And there was a thread going where some said the pounds just dropped off. I was thinking if I do lose weight, then I'll just add extra to my bike, so I don't lose the conditioning of the "weight bellt" I carry now.

I could to quite a tour with a 100 pound load!

(Unfortunately, I haven't kept a consistent schedule, and with the heat, I don't want to ride later than about 10 AM.
