Don't want to over-do this!! HELP!!

[Irulan]

isnt' the basic rule, eat less, exercise more? Why not do both, but instead of "diet" just eat better.

I don't know why you wouldn't want to just ride as much as you want. Better than dieting is just eating better foods, and less of them. Becare of the no-carb mentality, quality carbohydrates are essential especially if you are burning fuel while riding... It's time to educate yourself about quality foods going in, what your body acutally needs, and not "diet".

there have been some really good threads on weight loss, riding and nutrition here in the past, maybe try seraching the forums a bit?

I guess you could worry about overtrainiing, but I don't think the average rider needs to worry about that.
