Hubby got to ride a little bit yesterday, and I realized something. I think I’m going to have to talk him into going to my aunt’s house a couple days a week to use her weight equipment because his leathers are getting awful tight on him. Not being able to ride means he’s not out doing things. Instead he’s sitting on the couch. It might not seem like the bike contributes to his weight loss, but it does. When he’s riding he’s sweating a good deal.  Then when we get off the bike he cramps up if we don’t walk around a bit before he sits down again.  Of course we also do a lot of walking on our mountain rides, too, because we stop at all the waterfalls and walk in to see them.  I guess I didn’t realize that we both are getting a little exercise while we’re out riding.
