Hi,
New cyclist (never been on bike for years) but used to love it.
I'm a very embarrassing 154kg and desperately wanting to do something about it. I collect my bike this weekend and I'm determined to start going out riding on a regular basis. I'm initially doing this once dark to avoid too many turning heads
I am combining this with a change of diet and I'm hoping to post updates here and share my experience.
I did notice the weight watchers thread so may add my details to that.
My main question just now is am I likely to break my bike? I have purchased a Marin bobcat trail 27.5 that I will use mainly on trails. I live near a valley and canal.
I will be taking it easy to start with nothing over the top as I don't want to end up in too much pain too soon and put myself off.
This really is a lifestyle change for me that I will win
Cheers
John
