In 1997 I traded the second car we owned for a bicycle and never felt the need to get another car. I have spent the past decade transforming other people to get fit by bicycling, swimming or walking/running. I have been a long distance swimmer, long distance runner and lately a long-distance bicyclist. However, my long distance bicycling is long for my age and environment and is no comparison to the extraordinary long distance riders. If a 70-100 mile bicycle ride is not long for a 66-year old, then what is long? I cycle in all seasons of the year and hope to try out snow bicycling with snow-studded tires soon and some adventure rides (basically not knowing what is on the other side).
