Lee quit smoking waaay before he put on all that weight. But he smoked like a freakin' chimney.

Yeah, I'm really proud of what he's done for himself. The biking made a huge impact. He first got a hybrid and would toodle around the AC trail with me - I remember when he would DIE going up the little rollers around Coyote Hills park. But he stuck with it, and after a while he was lusting after a Rivendell Romulus but he was hesitant because of how much it cost. It seemed like he was really enjoying biking so I urged him to get it. He did, he loved it, and a few weeks later I was toodling around with him on his new Romulus and me on my hybrid and I asked him if I could give his bike a try. I wouldn't give it back until I got one of my own.
