I just bought two pairs of skinny jeans. I actually look good in them. So good that I don't feel guilty about walking into the Clark's store intending to buy a pair of boots, and buying two pairs instead.

tulip, I like your thinking. It's just as important to think about what keeps us happy, sane, patient, add-admirable-trait-at-will as to how exercise affects our bodies.
That said, what I like most about biking as exercise and especially bike commuting is the everydayness and usefulness of it. Even the days that aren't "whee!" I'm still getting from A to B on my own power and am also using my body the way I feel it was meant to be used, simple movement over time, nothing extreme.Winter riding is much less about badassery and much more about bundle-uppery. - malkin
