It has been a while since I have took the bike out without wearing my clip in cleats. It feels so weird without them because my feet have gotten so used to being locked into the pedals, so without them I feel vulnerable without that extra leverage while in motion.
I procrastinated on getting out before noon, but best believe I was going to out get eventually. I took the bike on my out-and-back route headed downtown Chicago – Loop. As the days go on there are more vehicles out on the roads as well as more pedestrians, so my alertness continues to increase because at any minute a vehicle or a pedestrian that is not paying attention can dart out in front of the bike path.
We have had bikers get ran over in scenarios like this because they were not visible to vehicles ; some bikers even try darting up trying to pass the vehicle before it turns. What I like to do is hang out behind the vehicle whether large or small before it turns because the thought of being ran over by a large vehicle like this is not very settling.

Have you tried the new recumbent stationary bikes? we are thinking about getting one, and wanted to get the opinion of my exercise guru first!
I haven’t but would love to. I wish they had them at my gym because riding one will just add more desire to riding more.
i figured if anyone on earth had tried one it was you! oh well I am still thinking about getting one for the home gym!
I have seen them on television commercials. Would love to have one because it will also keep me from going out
my wife wants one for the exercise. i don’t know, i worry about home equipment like that.
If I found a used one online I would purchase it because I could not afford a brand new one.
there is a used place near us but I haven’t seen one there…
If you’re intrested in one I would recommend checking videos out reviews of it YouTube
i’ve done that part, I was figuring my exercise guru would have the experience. 🙂
Me! A fitness guru? All I do is sat on the couch and eat potato chips I’m no exercise guru, maybe a food guru. I dont do workouts.
you are always sharing your workouts, and I have learned a lot, sorry guru sticks.
You are a foodie exercise guru.
Great enjoying your real life
