Stephen the Incorrigible asked:
I have debating on whether or not to purchase a bicycle and riding it for additional exercise. I am unsure of the exact health benefits of riding a bike. What prompted my interest in bike riding is that I used to drive past a really large man everyday and then I stopped taking the same route that he cycled on for a while and when I returned to the route I noticed that the guy was thin. I am not sure if it is a direct result of his cycling, but it did spark my interest in cycling.
