Regarding beer... With Super Bowl Sunday, I, along with most other Americans, made a trip to the beer store this week. In line with the guys carting up cases of Bud light, there I was with three measly four-packs of an assortment of Unibroue's finest (Unibroue is a company that brews Belgian style ales in Quebec). 12 bottles for about $24 dollars. I could have purchased 5 gallons of Bud for $24. With beer, wine and food in general, I'm buying better and fresher - and consuming a lot less. With this regimen, the benefits of weight control obtain - with about 80 miles of riding under my belt over the weekend (in addition to some beer, wine - and cheese).
