yes, agreed. It's nice to put a lot of miles down when i can't really run/walk a lot of miles due to bad knees (cartilage removed/damaged from a HS long-jump accident)

this is true. that said i doubt we could do more than 5-6 miles together though...she's not conditioned for it. her bike might go 25 miles a year at best.

then again she told me she'd never be interested in camping and yet....here we are.

e-bike!

My 330# of man, kid, and machine can easily keep up with a fit person who rides thousands of miles/year (i.e. Mikey). I can even dust him on hill climbs, but it's still sweat inducing exercise.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

I've been meaning to start biking. Running is so hard on my back and knees ( I don't have much cartilage in my knees)
