Basically a newbie poster here, just bought my first bike in quite sometime, a used kona smoke, got a pretty sweet deal on it. I have lost about 17 pounds with a goal of 10 more to lose. I am hoping the bike will help (in addition to going to the gym and playing ice hockey in the winter when it is cold and I won't be riding. The trainer at the gym I go to told me that it was a marathon not a sprint. Remember that when you feel like you have hit your plateau.
