My genetics also suck and that's even more reason to keep on trying to get my b_tt off the couch and get moving. It's too easy to slow down, stay put and die...but not worth it to give up!!

Cycling is a life-saver for so many of us who have medical problems -- we are the "medical wrecks on wheels" who bike for life! I may not be going strong right now (sprained my right knee) but as soon as it's healed, I'm on my new bike and going strong later on!!

I may be old, fat and out of shape but this lady's gonna get her b_tt in gear and lose that weight and get healthy or die trying!

Rock on ladies!!
Dear Mmelindas,

I love the "medical wrecks on wheels". I admire you so much. I sound totally healthy when I hear your story.

I hope you'll not only bike for health but bike for fun, too.

It's great we have this forum to encourage one another. And it's great that TE has the bike clothes to make us feel sporty.

Good biking, Barb
