I am here for my wife because I hit the road every day and log miles on the safest roads I can find.
I'm sorry. That's just bad logic. In fact, you have no way of knowing why you're here for your W. It could be your exercising, but it could be one or more of many other factors.
Actually, based on your 'logic,' my Mom is a much better case for doing the opposite of what you do. She never exercised, and she's been obese for the 75 years I've known her, and probably longer. She's in her 102nd year and still going strong, making new friends, etc..
Also, you may ride for other reasons than the ones you have stated. In fact, I'm sure of it.
