Hello,

I read a recent study that was stating that the american food industry
produced 3800 calories per person per day (including babies and old
peoples)...
when you know that a normal diet for an active adult is in the 1800~2000
calories a day, and that the food industry is trying it's darnest to get you
to eat their product....

no wonder america is fat!

I really cracked up with this picture.


I've seen people waiting for the front row parking spots at my gym.

I've also fought with two gyms over a lack of bicycle parking. The
first gym suggested that no one was interested in riding a bicycle to
the gym, as the gym had stationary bikes. G

My current place accommodated me, there are now 4 others who cycle to
the gym! We get our cardio on the way to the gym, rather than in it.


After a couple of months of going to the gym, I realized the absurdity of
driving there and then spending 20 minutes on an exercise bicycle or
treadmill, especially since the 5km ride is mostly uphill both ways. But I
did wimp out this winter despite having studded tires on my bike. Don't
trust the drivers.
