RNY Gastric Bypass Loving my Bike

[BIG KIM]

Hey All,

Well with my Cycling and 3/4 visits to the Gym now I am getting quite toned up. I'm loving my bike, and had a great 10mile X-Country ride yesterday. lots of mud and water

As the better weather gets here, I will be knocking the miles out and have some big rides planned.
Heres a Pic of me after yesterdays ride.

You're 6 months behind me though with your operation. You'll easy do it. A massive part of the longer rides is mental ability. Once you've got your head sorted that you can do it, you'll do it

It's also quite Hilly around here also. dont think there is a ride I do without a challenging Hill to get up or 2, not to mention the long inclines. Always get up em though.

Yeah that and developing a leather arse LOL

You guys doing long distances on two tonne mountain bikes are nuts My roadie weighs chuff all and even that gets heavy on the legs after 45 miles

I am looking forward to better weather too. I've got a set of new wheels being made at the moment with low resistance tyres can't wait to whack them on and go

Did you ever think that it would be possible for you to be doing what you do now. I try and imagine the changes but it seems unrealistic to ever imagine myself being anything other than immobile x
