Total Maps: 48
Total Workouts: 202
Total Burned: 61,272 (kcal)

One of the main benefits has been the weight loss, 61,000 calories burnt has to have some effect!

I can’t imagine going back to commuting on a bus, cycling to work has become a real pleasure come rain or shine (but not wind, that’s a bitch!). You get to work feeling alert and with a sense of achievement. It’s my 50th birthday on Monday and I’m fitter than I’ve been for many years
