Having crohn's disease, biking is definitely an outlet for me to burn off some frustrations, etc. I wouldn't consider myself depressed though. My biggest fear as this fun disease progresses is that one day my GI will tell me I can't ride any more. I'd probably tell him to stuff it I also have complications that lead me to have surgeries on my butt, which really makes riding hard. I had one last August and was out of the saddle until March.

I just keep peddaling though. I will ride until I'm physically unable to do so. Then I'll put in another 10 miles
