Turned 50 last Feb. I weighed 205 and im 5'7", a little too much. My brother in law has been riding for awhile and lost 40 lbs. This past summer i decided to lose some weight, thought id try biking. I like camping, canoeing, fishing and hiking, so i decided to try mountain biking,(keep me in the woods). Got my Ibex Apogee Sport last July, been riding a local trail 2 twice a week and riding a singletrack at Kickapoo State Park almost every weekend since. The singletrack is almost 10 miles long. Now I'm at 185 and dont winded as soon as i used to. I take a multi-vit, no spec reason, and i play racquetball twice a week during the short daylight months.
